The Probationary Employment Agreement template is designed for use in Belgium when establishing new employment relationships. Following the 2014 Belgian employment law reforms that largely abolished traditional probationary periods (except for student workers and temporary agency workers), this agreement effectively structures the initial employment period using shorter notice periods permitted during the first months of employment. It provides a comprehensive framework for documenting the employment relationship, including essential terms such as role responsibilities, remuneration, benefits, and working conditions, while ensuring compliance with Belgian labor law, social security regulations, and relevant collective bargaining agreements. This document is particularly useful for employers seeking to establish clear terms of employment while maintaining the flexibility offered by Belgian law during the initial months of employment.
