Tenure and Probation Clause Samples

The 'Tenure and Probation' clause defines the initial period during which an employee's performance and suitability for a role are evaluated before they are granted permanent employment status. Typically, this clause outlines the length of the probationary period, the criteria for assessment, and the rights of both employer and employee during this time, such as the ability to terminate employment with shorter notice. Its core function is to provide a structured timeframe for both parties to assess fit and performance, thereby reducing the risk of long-term commitment to an unsuitable employment relationship.
