A probationary period of 90 days for new hires and those transferred to new positions is a helpful way to make certain that the orientation process and the staff member’s work performance are in alignment with the goals and objectives of the department and the College. This allows for frequent communication and feedback to the employee by this or her supervisor/team leader and is intended to create opportunities for the discussion of actual work performance, the transition to the College campus environment and the identification of both short and long term goals.
OTHER PROBATIONARY PERIODS
In some situations, a probationary period may be necessary at other times during employment where performance or employee conduct do not meet the expectations of the work group or department. In situations where a “cautionary” probation period is identified, improvement is required if employment is to be continued. Such instances are documented in writing and explained to the employee by the employee’s supervisor at the time the probationary status is communicated.
