Line manager checking in with me constantly

9 replies

I have been at my current job for 5 years and my manager has told me that my work is always to a high standard and she knows that if she gives me a job to do I will always complete it.
Recently my line manager constantly checks in with me to check what jobs I have done and if they are complete even though we have a task list and I check off what task I have completed.
She doesn’t do this with anyone else and it’s starting to knock my confidence that maybe I’m not doing my job well enough.

When is your annual performance review?

What is ‘constantly’? How do you know she’s only doing this with you?

And your last one? How did that go?

even though we have a task list and I check off what task I have completed.

Have you reminded her that this exists?

@Itchyblister last review went well but that is with manager not line manager.

@DenholmElliot11 yeah have told her I have checked the task list off but she still continues to ask

Well next time she asks, remind her that you had this conversation already. See what she says then.

Surely Annual Review should be completed by line manager or how else can they know how you are going.
Do you mean Supervisor.
I line Manage staff but also have a Supervisor below me and above the other team members and she monitors workload.
I would only ask those kind of questions regularly if I had concerns over outputs.
I’ve recently been doing this with a staff member who is working below performance levels.
If you feel your performance is good then ask her why she is checking in on you do often. BTW you don’t say how often this is.
