Three Months’ Probation Completed Letter to Employee

Often companies hire employees on probation. This probation period may last from 3 months to a year. During this period the employee’s performance is monitored and evaluated. If at the completion of this period, the employer feels that the employee is suitable for the company and is appropriate for the position for which hiring is being done, the company signs a contract with the employee.

The need for a probation period arises from the fact that even the most thorough interview cannot guarantee that the employee is appropriate for the job but during the probation period it is easy to evaluate and monitor the employee’s work habits and temperament.

Whether or not they can work in a team effectively and whether they have the required skill set for the job or not. When the probation period is over the employer informs the employee, if they have been selected or not.

In the letter the employer would first congratulate the employee on the completion of the probation period and then it will go on to explain briefly what points were noticed during the evaluation. It would list the employee’s strengths and weaknesses, and, in the end, it would be announced if the company wants to hire the employee or not.

It is a formal letter, and it will be written in the standard format of a formal letter. Even if the employee is not hired, the letter should be ended on a positive note wishing the employee the best for the future and congratulating them on the successful completion of the probation.
