Job Offer/Contract

All new employees should be issued with contract of employment containing a statement of their terms and conditions of their employment.

Probation

New employees can be subject to a probationary period which must be stated in their contract of employment, which may be extended to 12 months in total. During this period every effort must be made to ensure that the new employee receives adequate training and support to complete their probationary period successfully.

Two reviews should take place during a six month period, the first at three months, and the final at the end of the six month period.

If it is determined that the employee has successfully completed their probation, a letter will be issued to confirm this. If, however after reviews that an employee’s performance and behaviour does not meet the required standards, an organisation can proceed to terminate.
