PROBATION AND EVALUATION. A. All employees shall serve an initial one hundred and twenty (120) working days probationary period. Working days shall be defined as “the period of time the employee is scheduled and working.” Breaks and recess shall not be counted as working days. On or about the one hundredth (100th) day the employee will meet with the immediate supervisor to assess the employee’s job performance. If the employee’s job performance has been found to be satisfactory, he/she shall be employed and their seniority shall be retroactive to their original date of hire. Probationary employees shall be eligible for any and all benefits contained herein. However, the Board shall have sole discretion to discipline or discharge such initial probationary employees and such action shall not be subject to review through the Grievance Procedure. Probationary employees shall not be discharged or disciplined for Union membership or participation in lawful Union activities. All employees retained beyond their probationary period, shall be subject for dismissal only for just cause. This procedure expressly supersedes Ohio Revised Code Chapter 124 and Section 3319.
