Why use the Probation Completion Letter Script

• To formally confirm and record successful completion of the employee’s probationary period.
• To provide feedback, and set goals for the upcoming period.

What you risk by not using the Probation Completion Letter Script

• It’s likely that each of your Managers will communicate the completion of the probationary period differently. Some may do so verbally, others may choose a more formal written approach, but the content of the communication will be inconsistent. When managing performance and setting goals and expectations for future performance, it is highly recommended that a standard and consistent approach is used across the company.
