The topic of this episode of Format Légal is the probationary period that follows the hiring of a new employee. During our discussion, we explore in greater detail the various legal aspects of this timeframe, often simply referred to as "probation," as well as its purpose and limitations. Do employers really benefit from the probationary period? Is it subject to any laws or regulations? Are there boundaries that should not be overstepped?
These are the questions Montréal associate counsel Marc Ouellet will answer in this episode. Marc specializes in labour and employment law and is the co-author of Les Normes du travail (second edition), a detailed exploration of labour legislation in Québec.
