Right,
maybe somebody here knows the answer to a big concern we have just now.
Hubby is currently 4 months into his 6 months probationary. For the past few weeks there hasn't been a lot of work, but he's always been told by the managers that this will change and to just wait. He's constantly asking what can he do, but is given very small tasks.
Anyway, yesterday he was told by his line manager, that his servicees will no longer be needed at the company, as he's not delivering the performance they are expecting.
They will have a chat today. I have asked him to take a witness and insist on the meeting being minuted or recorded.
We have just reread his contract and this is what it says:
"12. The first 6 months of your employment will be a probationary period during which time your performance and conduct will be monitored and appraised. At the end of that period, your employment will be reviewed and may be terminated, if you are found for any reason whatsoever to be incapable of carrying out, or otherwise unsuitable for, your job. The Company may extend your probationary period by written notice, but so that your total period of probation will not exceed 6 months."
Does that mean they can't fire him within the first 6 months of employment?
don't get me wrong, Hubby has been looking for work already in a different place, but so far has been unsuccessful. It's just we can't survive very long on one salary.
any thoughts anybody?
Thank you!
