Whether an employer can impose a notice period clause in the service conditions on the employee in addition to the usual term "a probationer can be terminated at any time without assigning any reason during the probationary period or during the extended period of the probationer." Such a condition is legally acceptable. Request expert views, please. Regards, V. Sridharan

Employment Terms & Conditions are regulated by the laws applicable to the employer and the employees under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, and/or the Shops & Establishments Act. For probationers, no notice period is prescribed.
A probationer is a person employed against a permanent post or ESF post, subject to the proviso that he/she shall be confirmed against that permanent post only when his/her performance and behavior are up to the mark. In case it is not so, then the employment of the probationer stands terminated without any notice period or pay in lieu thereof.
The probationer, likewise, has the right/prerogative to quit employment without giving any notice period or any payment in lieu thereof. Probation is a testing time period for either of the contracting parties.
