Probationary Firefighter Sample Clauses

The Probationary Firefighter clause defines the status and conditions applicable to firefighters who are newly hired and undergoing an initial evaluation period. Typically, this clause outlines the duration of the probationary period, the performance standards expected, and the rights or limitations of probationary firefighters, such as restricted access to certain benefits or limited job security. Its core function is to provide the employer with a structured timeframe to assess the suitability and performance of new hires before granting them full employment status, thereby reducing the risk of retaining unsuitable personnel.
