Cracker Barrel Stars

The stars represent PAR levels. “Personal Achievement Recognition”. At set intervals employees are given evaluations and have the opportunity to take a test to reach the next PAR level. There are computer courses to complete prior to taking the tests. Small raises are given upon reaching the next level. When PAR 4 is reached some employee benefits are increased such as an increased employee discount and less expensive insurance premiums. Red aprons are reserved for skill trainers. The PAR program is not mandatory. Employees are free to not participate without reprimand.

The stars are awarded as each associate completes a certain level of training. The most I have ever seen on the employees are 5.
