The 90 Day Orientation and Review Period
...
Time-frame and Purpose
Generally, the first 90 days of employment is an orientation and review period (sometimes referred to as the probationary period). During this time both the employee and the supervisor should consider and evaluate the suitability of the placement. Supervisors are encouraged to use this period to review and discuss with the employee his or her progress in meeting the requirements of the position and in adapting to the work environment as a whole. At the end of the period, a meeting will be initiated by the manager to discuss the employees progress and a form will be completed online in PeopleSoft through a performance management process called ePerformance (ePerformance Orientation and Review Summary).
...
Extensions to the Orientation and Review Period
In some cases, 90 days may not be sufficient to evaluate the suitability of a placement. In certain instances, the complexity of the position or other departmental staffing and/or operational considerations may require an extension of the orientation and review period of up to 90 days to fully assess the suitability of the placement. The terms of the extension should be in writing, signed and acknowledged by the employee and discussed in advance with the local human resources office.
...
Paid Time Off during the Orientation and Review Period
Although paid time off (vacation, personal and sick days) begins to accrue immediately upon hire, employees are not eligible to take vacation or personal days during the orientation and review period except with the prior approval of their supervisor.
