Manager Guide to Probation for Professional Staff in Workday

This guide is to assist Managers through the Probation process in Workday. Probation is an opportunity to clarify expectations for the new staff member of the role in the first months in the organisation and to discuss areas for development. For Professional Staff, probation is generally set for a period of six months but can vary depending on the individual situation.

Workday is the tool that is used to record probation goals and outcomes, however the key to a successful outcome in Probation is ongoing conversation between you and your staff member. Regular check-ins on progress are essential.

The Probation process below applies to Professional Fixed Term and Continuing staff members.

This help article provides steps on how to:

  • Provide feedback to the staff member throughout the probation process.
  • Record the probation outcome in the Workday system.

If you are planning on extending the probation period for a staff member, please ensure you:

  • Contact HR Partnering for advice and support
  • Meet with your staff member to advise them of the extension to the probation period after you have confirmed this with HR Partnering.

Important Note: If you do not enter a probation outcome into Workday and your staff member’s end of probation date passes, your staff member will be deemed to have passed probation.

For more information on the duration of probation, extending the probation period, and circumstances around unsuccessful probation, please refer to Part C of the Enterprise Agreement.
