ABSTRACT : The CV. BBC is a company engaged in the food sector that processes meat, arak (traditional Balinese drink), and cooking spices. Some of the company’s employees still have multiple responsibilities, there are no reference variables used to improve employee performance, and a lack of technical training and self- development. This study aims to determine performance variables, employee performance assessment using the BARS method, and provide recommendations for performance assessment. Employee performance assessment uses 10 employees. The results of the study can identify six performance assessment variables, namely attendance, responsibility, cooperation, compliance, honesty, and initiative. The percentage level of variables ranges from 68% – 87% with a description of high – very high. The recommendation that can be given is that variables in the “very high” category need to be maintained and improved, while variables in the “high” category need intensive training and communication between superiors and employees. Employee performance assessment using the BARS method at CV. BBC can be carried out effectively to increase company productivity.
