Hi Friends,

When we include something in the appointment letter for confirmation, I know it could be extendable if the employee is not performing well. For example, after 6 months, an employee would receive a confirmation letter.

However, my query is: for how long a period should we not confirm an employee during their job?

Kindly share your suggestions.

Thanks & Regards, Mani

Dear Manya, what you have quoted is absolutely right.

If the employee has not performed well in his/her probation period, then their confirmation can be extended. The extension of the probation period is at the discretion of HOD/Line Manager in consultation with the HR.

A situation might arise wherein an employee may even be asked to leave if he/she does not perform well even after the extension of the probation period.

Hi Ankit,

I absolutely agree with your statement. But again, my question is the same. What would be the legal or justified maximum period for the probation? For instance, if X has time for promotion or appraisal and he/she didn't get the confirmation even after the completion of more than one year, and suddenly he/she gets to know that the appraisal would not be there as he/she is not confirmed (X HAS NOT BEEN TOLD FOR HIS/HER PERFORMANCE WITHIN THAT PERIOD).

What suggestions can you give after knowing all these things?

Regards
