Objeto: En un contexto de crisis económica, como es el caso de España, la evaluación del rendimiento de los empleados de cualquier ámbito resulta una herramienta clave para mejorar la eficiencia de los trabajadores. En el caso de aquellas profesiones que se desarrollan con el fin de ofrecer un servicio social básico a las personas su importancia es aún mayor. Por ello, nuestro estudio se ha centrado en elaborar una Escala de Evaluación del Desempeño de Educadores Sociales mediante la técnica BARS Diseño/metodología: se solicitó a 11 expertos que enumeraran aquellas competencias que creían necesarias para desempeñar de forma eficiente esta labor. Posteriormente, se seleccionaron aquellas en que coincidieran con un acuerdo interjueces de al menos 3.  A continuación se asoció a cada competencia con 2 incidentes críticos y se elaboraron sus correspondientes anclajes conductuales. Además, la escala cuenta con una recogida de datos personales como la antigüedad y las bajas, indicadores frecuentemente utilizados como definitorios de buen desempeño. Por último, la escala fue administrada a una muestra de 128 Educadores Sociales que ejercen en Centros de Acogida y de Reforma. Aportaciones y resultados: Los resultados muestran que la escala cumple los criterios psicométricos necesarios para ser validada (α= 0,873) y su posible factorización (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin=0,810), obteniéndose 3 dimensiones (trabajo en equipo, habilidades interpersonales y competencias individuales del trabajo). Limitaciones: La falta de idoneidad de estos criterios externos puede ser debida a la frecuente confusión entre antigüedad y experiencia y bajas y absentismo laboral. Implicaciones prácticas: Puede apreciarse la falta de covariación entre los criterios externos (antigüedad y nº de bajas) y la competencia del empleado. Esto confirma la falta de idoneidad de los mismos para usarse como criterios externos. Siendo necesario el desarrollo de herramientas de evaluación del rendimiento que incluyan absentismo y experiencia como medidas predictoras de rendimiento óptimo. Valor añadido: El estudio contribuye a definir la figura y las competencias del Educador Social, figura académica de reciente aparición en nuestra sociedad y que está difusamente definido.

For those professions that are developed in order to provide basic social services to the people of its importance is even greater. Thereby, this study is focused on developing a Performance Rating Scale of Social Workers using BARS technique.Design/methodology/approach: We asked 11 experts to list those competencies they believed necessary to perform this task efficiently. Thereafter, we selected competencies what coincide with an Interjudge arrangement of at least 3. Then each competency was associated with two critical incidents and developed corresponding behavioral anchors. In addition, the scale has a collection of personal data such as age and time off work, often used as indicators defining performance. Finally, the scale was tested to a sample of 128 Social Workers working in interim child care centers and children and youth correctional centers.Findings and Originality/value: The results show that the scale meets the criteria required for validation psychometric (α= 0,873). Also, the scale could be factored (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin=0,810). Three dimensions were obtained: team work, interpersonal skills and competencies of the work).Research limitations/implications: An appreciation of the lack of covariation between external criteria used as identifiers of good performance (age and number of sick leave) and the employee's competence. This confirms the inadequacy of these criteria to predict performance. Necessitating the development of performance evaluation tools that include absenteeism and experience as predictors of performance measures.Practical implications: The inadequacy may be due to the usually confusion between work experience - seniority and sick leave - absenteeism.Originality/value: The study helps define the figure and the competences of social educators, academic figure emerging in our society and that is vaguely defined.
