In episode two, season 2 of All Things HR, I address the topic of a new employee’s probation period. The probation period is linked to last month's episode of All Things HR where I discussed the topic of onboarding/inducting a new employee onto your team. The subject of a probation period is linked to a new employee’s onboarding experience. The probation period will be outlined in an employee’s contract, however, for additional clarity I would encourage an organisation to have a probation period policy which sets out the role of the manager, the employee and what are the key steps during a probation process.
