Email Notifications for 3rd and 5th Month Evaluations

For most newly hired Employees, the Introductory Period consists of the first 3 and 5 months of employment after the hire date. This period is used to determine if the newly hired Employee’s performance meets the expectations of the position and if continued employment is warranted.

Based on the overall assessment of the newly hired Employee's performance during this period, their Direct Managers/Supervisors will have to decide if they want to continue employment, extend (or decrease) the introductory period, or terminate the latter's employment through performance evaluation.

Currently, Sprout HR does not have a feature that will automatically remind the Managers that they have direct reports who need to be evaluated, which may cause delays on the expected regularization date versus the actual date.

Hence, the introduction of the Notification Engine, wherein moving forward, Managers/Supervisors will be receiving an email reminder for the 3rd and 5th-month Employment Introductory Period of their direct reports. In the same email, a link to Performance+ is provided for a seamless experience to complete their performance evaluation/assessment.
