I have three questions regarding probation confirmation:
1. Can an employer issue an appointment letter directly confirming the employee?
2. Can an employer specify a different probation period for different categories of employees?
3. Is it possible to have a probation period for one category and no probation for employees who have already undergone training for one year?

Dear friend,
No law relating to employment, particularly any labor law, distinguishes employees as temporary or permanent unless there is a specific provision to that effect based on the nature of the job, as outlined in the Standing Orders, Service Regulations, or the Contract of Employment. Therefore, "YES" is the answer to your first query.
Probation, in employment terms, refers to a predetermined period of on-the-job continuous assessment of a newly appointed employee, focusing on general and specific skills, orientation with the organizational culture, punctuality, potential for grooming for higher responsibilities, and similar factors. Hence, it is possible to establish varying probation periods for different job categories.
In light of the response to your initial query, the employer has the discretion to make decisions.
Please let me know if you need further clarification or assistance.
Best regards,
