In every company, appointment letter or Offer of appointment is given to employee, prior to his joining
the services ofthe company. In that letter, it is clearly mentioned " you shall be on probation for -- months and
During the period of probation, your services can be terminated by company without any notice or salary in lieu of
notice period.
After successfully completing your probation period, your services shall be confirmed by the management
in writing. After confirmation of services, both the parties can termnate tthe contract by giving one month (or three months)
notice period or salary in lieu of notice period." ..
In my opinion if a confirmation letter in wiriting is not given to employee, then it shall be deemed that the employee is
on probation During probation period, no notice is required to be served - This is the principle which is generally observed
and followed. Manipulation of record is only other side of the coin.
