Document background
The Probation Employment Contract is essential for Canadian employers when hiring new employees, establishing a defined probationary period during which both parties can assess the employment relationship's suitability. This document is typically used at the commencement of employment, setting out clear terms, conditions, and expectations for the probationary period in compliance with Canadian federal and provincial employment standards. It includes crucial details about the position, compensation, performance expectations, evaluation criteria, and conditions for permanent employment or termination. The contract serves as a legal foundation for the initial employment relationship while protecting both employer and employee interests under Canadian law.
