OFFICE MEMORANDUM 

Subject :  Probation in various Central Civil Services.

The  undersigned is directed to say that the period of probation to be  prescribed for different posts/services  in Central Government  have been laid down  in this Department's O.M. No. F.4411159-Ests.(A) dated
15.4.1959 as amended from time to time. Although instructions exist to the  effect that  save  for exceptional reasons probation should  not  be extended for more  than  a  year  and  no  employee should  be  kept on
probation for more than double the normal period apart from  instructions for  timely action  on completion of probation/confirmation, these are not  invariably followed.

2.  With  a  view  to prevent Government servants from becoming  possible victims of  arbitrary  actions or inordinate delay  in  considering  completion of probation/confirmation,  the  existing instructions on
provisions regarding probation in the service/recruitment rules relating to  Central Civil Services and Posts have been reviewed.  It has now been decided that :-
(I) If during the period of probation, a probationer has not undergone the  requisite training course or passed the requisite departmental examinations if any prescribed or has not been on duty/training for
at  least 75% of  the probation period, the period of probation may be  extended by such period or periods as may  be  necessary subject to the condition that the total period of probation does not
exceed double the prescribed period of probation except  in  the cases mentioned in (ii) below:-
II) the period of probation may be extended  for  such period as  the Central Government may think fit in the circumstances of the case  in respect of a probationer who is:
a)  under suspension;
b)  against whom disciplinary proceedings are pending; or
c)  against whom prosecution for criminal charge is pending.
Ill)  Where  a probationer who  has completed the  period of probation to the satisfaction of the Central Government is required to be confirmed,  he shall  be confirmed  in  the  Service/Post  at  the end of  his period of  probation, having been completed satisfactorily.  In  such cases, where no order extending the  probation period has been issued and no order  of confirmation is issued within  one  year  of completion of the  prescribed period of probation, the probationer would be deemed to be  confirmed in the service/post.

3.  In the Service/Recruitment Rules for all Central Civil Services and Posts,  in  addition  to the  period of  probation,  wherever  prescribed.
corresponding provisions, as  in para 2  above, may  be  incorporated  in consultation with this Department in the light of the above instructions.
4.  The Hindi Version of this O.M. will follow.
