Guide to writing smart outputs

This is a guide to assist you with writing performance outputs in the context of the ILO’s Performance Management Framework (PMF). Outputs are specific statements of what you aim to achieve in a given performance cycle and by when you aim to achieve it. The development of outputs through the PMF emphasizes the link between individual results, unit workplans and organizational outcomes. Outputs contribute to the realization of outcomes and outcomes, in turn, contribute to ILO’s long-term impact on the world of work.
