REVISED FROM: 2013 Human Resources Policy Manual

Kentucky State University (KSU) shall make every effort to ensure that its hiring procedures serve the purpose of recruiting the best employees for each vacant position. However, KSU acknowledges that it is impossible to accurately predict performance. The introductory period for new employees gives an employee and KSU sufficient time to determine if the employment relationship will work out to the benefit of both parties.

An employee's introductory period is the 90-day period following his or her first day of employment.
