6.3 DISCIPLINARY PROBATION
This is a period imposed by the management upon a staff member who does not respond to verbal or written warning. The

terms of the probation includes the expectation from the staff at this period and the consequences of the failure to attain
the expected standard.
During this period, the performance/professional attitude of the staff member is monitored closely and any staff member
whose performance/attitude does not improve during this period will have his/her appointment terminated without notice.

A staff on disciplinary probation would normally not have his/her salary increased during the period of salary review.
