Can we extend the probation period of employees beyond 6 months? Actually as per our company policy pb period is 3 month. If employees still needs improvement then in that case it will be 6 mth. Now one of our employee his pb was 3 months. As his performance was not satisfactory and still needs improvement so his pb extended to 3 more months. Now he completed his pb of 6 months. But again his line manager says he still need improvement. So in this case can we again extend?

Dear Nisha-Shekhar.
In our company, the first three months on the job are a trial period for both employee and the Company. This initial period will give the employee a chance to adjust to his/her position and to see whether the employee enjoys working at the Company. At the same time, it allows the Company to observe employee progress and evaluate his/her skills, talents, and aptitude for the Company business.
During the employee's trial period, his/her supervisor will discuss his/her performance with him/her and will suggest solutions for any difficulty employee may be encountering. Because working in the right job is essential to satisfaction and progress. If the employee is not suited to the employee's present assignment, every effort will be made to determine his/her aptitude for another type of work. If it is decided that the employee's continued employment with the Company is not mutually beneficial – to the employee and the Company - the employee's employment will terminate without severance pay.
Although the employee won't be paid for any absence during his/her first three months of work, upon successful completion of his/her trial period, the employee will become a permanent member.
Best regards,

The probation period is not extended time and again and is subject to the policy/rules in this regard. Many organisations specify that probation can be extended only twice and that too for a period of twice the original probation. This period is more than sufficient to prove one's worth to the organisation and if one fails then the result is loss of service.
You may check the position with your organisation, in case there is no such provision, then you may extend the probation, make it clear that this is the last time and failing which the employee will not be retained in service.
