摘要:A probationary appointment is deemed to be a preliminary step towards thepermanent appointment of a person to a particular post and in this way, theemployer is enabled to judge the appointee within the scales devised for thispurpose. The exacerbatory aspect of the law relating to probation of civilservants in Pakistan is that it potently armors the employer to control a newentrant into the arena of civil service and leaves little room for the probationerto galvanize his fragile position. The conclusions inferred and suggestionsmade don’t but rather demonstrate an effort to unearth hidden aspects of thelaw for creating balance on both sides of the equation. With this end in view,the author relies not only on primary sources but benefits secondary sourcesas well.
