The first six (6) months of employment for all classified employees is a provisional period. This period serves to: (1) allow the employee to demonstrate their ability to perform the required job duties and determine whether to remain in University employment; and (2) it allows the University to evaluate the employee's capabilities and job performance.
During the provisional period, supervisors should communicate with the employee about his/her performance to ensure that the employee has an opportunity to correct performance deficiencies or inappropriate behavior.
Employees are subject to discharge without recourse at any time during the provisional period.
|
| During the provisional period, employees are eligible for all benefits to which regular employees are entitled.
|
Towards the end of the six (6) month provisional period, the supervisor will complete a performance evaluation, which will be submitted to Human Resources. The supervisor will meet with the employee at this time to discuss their job performance. If the employee's work is satisfactory, employment will continue.
Employees are subject to discharge without recourse at any time during the provisional period.
