Probation is the process of managing performance to integrate new employees into the Department or Office. Probation is in effect an extension of the selection process. The probationary process must be operated in an open, clear and supportive manner so as to ensure that a “full picture” of the employee’s suitability for the employment is obtained. This will enable the employer to make the appropriate decision as to whether the person should be retained in the employment.
Equity, effectiveness and accountability underpin the probationary process. For natural justice reasons, it is essential for managers to provide new employees with feedback on their performance; with training and development aimed at helping the employee to reach the required standard and with an opportunity to respond to comments on their performance.
Every appointment and promotion to a position in the competitive or labor class shall be for a probationary period of one year unless otherwise set forth in the terms and conditions of the certification for appointment or promotion as determined by the employer’s administrative services. Appointees shall be informed of the applicable probationary period.
For fresh recruit and employees promotion for new position that is we need to recruit personnel on probationery basis.
