The probationary period shall consist of the equivalent of the first six full months of compensated service following the date of the appointment action requiring a probationary period, except as provided in part 9575.0740. Intermittent employees shall serve a probationary period of six full months, not to exceed two calendar years. Employees who are in the professional series of classifications and who are supervisors or managers shall serve a one-year probationary period. Unpaid leave of ten or fewer workdays during the probationary period does not affect the duration of the probationary period.
If the appointing authority has an established policy that applies to all employees of that appointing authority governing the length of the probationary period, the appointing authority may follow that policy.
