The probationary period for academic staff and senior staff is 12 months and 6 months for support roles.
Mandatory training should be completed within the probation period. Similarly, the induction checklist should be completed and signed off.
If you have any concerns about the new starter's performance, it is important that you pick this up as early as possible within the probation period, when they are often easier to resolve. If in doubt, discuss your concerns with your link HR team
as soon as possible.

Probation Review is available here.
