Article 19: Probationary Period
-
- New Employees shall be given a probationary period of five hundred and twenty-two (522) hours worked excluding sleep shift function hours. If a new Employee is found unsatisfactory, such Employee may be dismissed at any time during the probationary period without having recourse to arbitration. The Union will be notified of such dismissals.
- An Employee shall receive a written evaluation towards the end of their probationary period. The evaluation will identify any work-related deficiencies which, if addressed, may help the Employee successfully complete their probation.
- An Employee’s probationary period may be extended by mutual agreement in writing between the Employer and the Union.
