Why Is Probationary Period Management Training Important?

Probationary periods are a valuable tool for assessing new hires and ensuring they’re a good fit for the role and organisation. When managed effectively, they help improve employee retention, develop performance and reduce hiring risks.

While organisations have flexibility in setting probation policies, they must comply with employment law and uphold statutory rights and protections.

This CPD-certified Probationary Period Management Training course provides a clear framework for managing probationary periods effectively. It covers their purpose, structure, and legal requirements while offering practical guidance on onboarding, setting targets, tracking performance and making well-informed final decisions.

By applying these principles, you can manage probation periods fairly, consistently and in full compliance with employment law. This approach reduces legal risks and supports better long-term outcomes.
