INITIAL PROBATIONARY PERIOD PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. The initial probationary period is defined as a minimum one-year period beginning from either the date of employment or, if a promotion or demotion is experienced during this first year, the initial probation period begins again for a minimum of one year from the effective date of the change of status. Generally, there will be two (2) evaluations during this period. The first one will be completed at six (6) months into the initial probationary period. The second one will be completed at the end of the initial probationary period. If the initial probationary period is successfully passed, the employee will acquire regular status, and this date will become his/her job anniversary date. If, at any point, an employee is not successfully passing a probationary period, the employee’s probationary period may be extended by the department director for up to six (6) months or the employee may be dismissed without an administrative hearing. Upon successfully passing the initial probationary period, the employee will also be eligible for a merit increase as specified in Article 12, Wages. Eligibility, however, does not indicate that an increase is automatic.
