When hiring employees, some employers set a probationary period. According to article 70 of the Labor Code, managers have the right to do this, but at the same time they must comply with the deadlines. It is everyone's business to introduce a test condition into the contract, but in order to avoid problems with a new employee, it is still worth writing about the term.

Be guided by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, which states that in relation to an employee, the term cannot exceed three months, and if a chief accountant or manager is hired, six. In the event that you are employing a temporary employee, you can schedule tests within two weeks.

If the payment during the first time of work differs, be sure to write down its amount. In the future, you can increase it with an additional agreement. In addition, fill out the condition of the test in the order for employment.
Step 5
Next, you will need to prepare tasks that the employee will perform during the trial period. Familiarize the employee with the document, he must sign and date.
Step 6
