FAQ
Probation in Texas generally requires regular reporting to a probation officer, travel restrictions, notification of changes in residence or employment, avoiding the commission of any new crimes, and refraining from firearm possession.
Companies can dismiss employees during their probationary period at any time, though most employers tend to make a decision closer to the end of that period to give the employee time to improve.
If an employer takes adverse action (like discharge, discipline, demotion, or threat thereof) against an employee within 90 days of the employee exercising rights under specific Labor Code provisions, it is presumed to be retaliatory.
There is no Texas or federal law that either requires or prohibits employers from treating employees as probationary, initial, trial, introductory, or provisional employees. No matter what name a company assigns to new employees, that is a matter of company policy.
