The performance of work in the “trial period” takes place after the conclusion of the individual employment contract

To evaluate the professional skills of the employee, a trial period can be established upon the conclusion of the individual employment contract, according to the following criteria:

• Maximum 90 calendar days for executive positions;
• Maximum 120 calendar days for management positions.

For people with disabilities, the verification of professional skills is done exclusively through a trial period of no more than 30 calendar days.

During or at the end of the trial period, the individual employment contract can be terminated exclusively by a written notification, without notice, at the initiative of either party, without the need to justify the decision.

During the course of an individual employment contract, only one trial period can be established.

In the case of employees hired on the basis of an individual fixed-term employment contract, the trial period cannot exceed the following limits:

• 5 working days for a contract with a duration of less than 3 months;
• 15 working days for a contract with a duration between 3 and 6 months;
• 30 working days for a contract with a duration longer than 6 months;
• 45 working days for employees in management positions, for contracts with a duration longer than 6 months.
