The labor agreement made between employee and the employer should be done in writing.
There can be optionally added a clause about probation period in the contract.
If there is no clause about the probation period in the contract, the notice period (concerning the rights of the payment in lieu of notice) begins instantly.
If the parties add a clause about the probation in the contract, the duration will be maximum 2 months.
(On the other hand, the probation period can be extended until 4 months in collective labor agreements.)
If the parties come to an agreement, the probation period can be less than 2 months.
Within the probation period, the parties may annul the contract without notice period and compensation.
If the parties specify the probation period and one of them annul the contract, there will be no notice pay and the labor contract will not continue as much as notice period.
Furthermore, the salary and the other fringe pays should be paid to himself/herself for the duration of his/her service.
