SIADAP — Sistema Integrado de Gestão e Avaliação do Desempenho na Administração Pública (performance appraisal system for civil servants)

The procedure under which a manager assesses each civil servant's work every two years. Each rating earns points, and pay rises and promotion to the next grade depend on them.

Where you come across it. Employment contracts with the state; news about civil servants' pay and strikes.
Unions are pushing for civil servants to keep their points when they move from a temporary contract to a permanent one or change post.
