Dear Sir,

I have worked with the company for 6 months. My probation period was also 6 months. So, after the completion of this, I have resigned. After 2 weeks, I have rejoined the same company. I want to know if I need to go for probation again. Can the company issue me a confirmation letter based on my old joining date as I have already completed probation? They are not ready to issue me my confirmation letter.

Kindly help me with this.

Greetings,

Probation is completed upon confirmation of services. Every company may have its own policy for rehires. Generally, the rules for probation and confirmation remain the same for both rehires and new hires. Therefore, you may need to complete the probation term to be confirmed.

Most of the companies would prefer to recruit the re-joinees on Probation only. So please check out with your HR ( Company Policy /Employer) what his call on this??

Check with your HR Department,. They can consider the 2 weeks GAP as LOP/Sick Leave, so your services shall continue. Check that option, we have done for our employees.,

It is absolutely at the discretion of the company. They may or may not agree to this. But, how does your probation affect your performance? You continue doing a good job. As such a confirmation letter is never issued at the end of the 6th month. It spills over for a month or two. Maybe your good performance may work in your favor, and your probation may get waived. All the best.

Dear Nirav,

It's purely in the hands of your company's HR. Ethically, you need to serve the probation period again if you have resigned and joined back. However, if your company and HR assist you, then only can you get your confirmation letter, and your probation period can be waived.

Dear Nirav Shah It is the discretion of your company’s policy. Employees who have been rehired will be put on probation generally. Regards LK

I believe you will have to serve a new probation period from the new joining date if you have left the company and rejoined after 2 weeks. Yes, it depends on the company, but the majority of companies have similar rules on this subject.

Thank you all for your prompt response to my query.

Here, I am worried because I fear that I will miss my next performance appraisal (increment) due to our company policy. The policy states that an employee is eligible for an increment only after completing one year in the company. If they consider my new joining date, I will miss out on the increment this time as well, just like I did last time.

Hi,

I believe you may be placed on probation once again. You should get in touch with the HR department in your company. Alternatively, you can provide a medical certificate and ask the HR to review your case. If your performance during the probation period is satisfactory, they might consider promoting you to the next level.

Hi Nirav,

Technically, you are to carry out the probation period again. I think if it was okay with their policy, they would have given you the letter. As mentioned by many, though, the company HR may decide to let it pass (this is at their discretion). All the best, but still do your task diligently regardless of the final outcome.

Cheers!

Hi,

As a new employee, you will have to go through the probation period. Even if you contact your HR, he is going to say the same thing. The reason is, once you resign, you are removed from the database and payroll system, and your account with the company is deactivated. Therefore, the company or HR will consider you a new employee only.

Best Regards,
