Classified Employee Probationary Periods:

Following his or her initial appointment into a permanent position, a classified employee will serve a probationary period of *six (6) months. This period is to allow the Employer the opportunity to observe and assess the employee’s work and to train and aid the employee in adjusting to the position in order to determine if the employee will be granted permanent status in the position.

  • It is recommended that the employee complete an employee evaluation and discuss it with the employee about three (3) months into his/her employment.
  • An employee’s probationary period may be extended by up to six (6) months.
  • The Employer may terminate the employment of a probationary employee at any time during the probationary period, and such action is not subject to the grievance procedure.

* Exception – Every permanent Campus Police Officer, following his or her initial appointment to a permanent appointment, will serve a probationary period of twelve (12) months following the successful completion of the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission’s basic law enforcement academy, or twelve (12) months if academy training is not required.
