Context: a manager is meeting with an underperforming employee. This meeting is called "une rencontre de redressement", presumably to get the employee to improve/turn around his/her performance. Not sure how to render this in Eng.

performance review meeting
Explanation:
Well, this googles best

The problem with an "improvement meeting" imo is that the omprovements (if they happen) take place AFTER the meeting, whilst with a "review meeting" the purpose is to disciss what is below standard and how the employee can make improvements.

remedial meeting


Explanation:
A possible alternative to "improvement meeting" (which I was also going to suggest, Marco got there first!), based on the description in this article entitled "Gérer les écarts de vos employés":

"Les réponses obtenues contribueront à l’élaboration de votre plan de redressement, qui permettra à l’employé d’identifier l’écart entre ce qui est attendu de lui et ce que l’on observe. Du coup, ce dernier saura quelles seront les conséquences s’il ne s’implique pas activement dans la démarche. Ainsi, la situation doit être clairement exposée afin de lui faire comprendre qu’il n’est pas face au choix d’agir ou non, mais bien à la responsabilité d’agir pour corriger la situation. Assurez-vous toutefois de lui démontrer qu’il pourra compter sur votre soutien sincère. Si l’employé décide de son plein gré de faire autrement, il lui appartiendra d’en assumer les conséquences."
http://www.affairesrh.ca/gestionnaires/coin-gestionnaire/fic...
(it also specifies that a "rencontre de redressement" is involved).

It sounds quite serious, which made me think of "remedial" as possibly being a step up from "improvement" - see the mentions of "remedial meeting" in this document (even though they're crossed out):

neutral  Nikki Scott-Despaigne: 1st source is helpful, altho' this part cld be isolated: "Vous reconnaîtrez que le but ultime d’un plan de redressement est de permettre à l’employé de se responsabiliser quant à ce qui lui est demandé." Hwvr, I'm less convnced by the EN suggestion .
