Probationary Employment Evaluation Packet Super 5™ – Soft Copy Editable Template
0 out of 5How to Evaluate Probationary Employees Using the
Probationary Employment Evaluation Packet Super 5This is a soft copy template saved in Word File and editable in Word Document.
This contains the sample terms, conditions, clauses, and provisions of the contracts described and the forms included.
See the Description below to view the Contents of this soft copy template.
One of the challenging aspects of monitoring the performance of a probationary employee is the establishment of performance ratings, metrics, or measures.
It is a settled rule that a probationary employee who was not apprised of the reasonable standards of performance to become regular employee is deemed regular from day one.
The same effect occurs for employees who have been with the company for at least six months and have not undergone performance evaluation. No matter how low did the probationary employee perform if the employer did not rate him with reasonable standards terminating the worker for failure to qualify is extremely risky.Read more..
Thus, when dealing with probationary employees, the company should have:
- Reasonable standards
- Made known such standards at the time of engagement
- Performance measures
- Periodic evaluation
- Clear rating plan, form, and template
With the right tools, the life of the employer would be bearable and the risk minimized to manageable level.
It is indeed a nerve-wracking exercise to devise the reasonable standards from scratch. However, this is made easy by the new products of LVS Rich Publishing known as the Probationary Employment Evaluation Packet Super 5.
This new soft copy product provides the proposed standards required for probationary to perform to qualify as regular employee. There are metrics with ratings and weights. There is a sample evaluation form where the employee rates himself and his superior then an average of the two ratings is obtained.
The rating system covers Performance, Punctuality/Attendance, Behavior, Teamwork, and Initiative. The total weight is 100%. If the probationary receives an average weight below 75% in one month, it shall be deemed as failure to meet the standards which may be ground for dismissal based on failure to qualify. Of course the buyer of this product can change the weight and rates according to what is considered applicable and necessary.
Performance metrics representing 30% of the total weight is based on Business Knowledge, Output/Production, Resourcefulness, and Teamwork.
Punctuality/attendance is one of the tricky areas to measure. The template though considers this as already 100% of its weight. It is given 20% weight subject to deduction of 3% for every instance of tardiness and 4% for every instance of unauthorized absence.Behavior is another matter of the same level of difficulty. To rate this, it is already pegged at 20% subject to deduction for every citation or violation of company rules, such as:
- Written warning – less 2%
- Stern warning – less 5%
- Written reprimand – less 6%
- 1-day Suspension – less 7%
- Longer suspension – less 10%
As to Performance metrics, sample rating spread can be seen in the Performance Review Template Excel File under the “Performance Weights” Sheet.
The rating system provides the following:
Outstanding Performance (OP) – Highest performance rating Reserved for individuals who continually achieve outstanding results and utilize their abilities in making contributions beyond their primary areas of responsibility.
Commendable Performance (CP) – Performance is above the expected level for the position making contributions beyond expectations in completion of assignments.
Effective Performance (EP) – Performance consistently meets supervisory expectations of the position requirements in making a valuable contribution to the overall objectives of the Group.
Marginal Performance (MP) – Performance does not consistently meet normal expectations and position requirements, improvement is required.
Unacceptable Performance (UP) – Performance fails to meet normal expectations and position requirements. Termination should be considered unless improvement is demonstrated in a short period of time.The buyer can Print Sheet 1 of the Performance Review Template Excel File entitled “Proby Metrics” Sheet as form in Performance Review where ratings shall be filled in. This will be used to tally the evaluation results based on performance metrics.
The Evaluation Packet comes with the Evaluation Guidelines file in Word document that will guide the user on how the evaluate the probationary employee using this product.
To further make this exercise easy, a sample evaluation of probationary employee is provided just to give the user a complete picture of how it will be done.
Upon purchase, the following files will be sent to the buyer’s email account from LVS’ Gmail Account:

Contract for Probationary Employment Daily Paid Employee – Soft Copy Editable Template
0 out of 5CONTRACT FOR PROBATIONARY EMPLOYMENT
SOFT COPY DESCRIPTION
This is a soft copy template saved in Word File and editable in Word Document.
This contains the sample terms, conditions, clauses, and provisions of the contract described.
See the Description below to view the Contents of this soft copy template.
A probationary employee is one who, for a given period of time, is being observed and evaluated to determine whether or not he is qualified for permanent employment.
A probationary appointment affords the employer an opportunity to observe the skill, competence and attitude of a probationer.
The word probationary, as used to describe the period of employment, implies the purpose of the term or period (Enchanted Kingdom, Inc. vs. Verzo, G.R. No. 209559, December 09, 2015).
While the employer observes the fitness, propriety and efficiency of a probationer, to ascertain whether he is qualified for permanent employment, the probationer, at the same time, seeks to prove to the employer that he has the qualifications to meet the reasonable standards for permanent employment. (41Escorpizo v. University of Baguio, 366 Phil. 166, 175-176 (1999).)
Read more..
The concept of probationary employment was, thus, introduced for the benefit of the employer to provide him with ample time to observe and determine whether a newly hired employee has the competence, ability and values necessary to achieve his objectives.
Probationary employment shall not exceed six (6) months from the date the employee started working, unless it is covered by an apprenticeship agreement stipulating a longer period. The services of an employee who has been engaged on a probationary basis may be terminated for a just cause or when he fails to qualify as a regular employee in accordance with reasonable standards made known by the employer to the employee at the time of his engagement. An employee who is allowed to work after a probationary period shall be considered a regular employee.
Employers should be careful in crafting probationary employment since any ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of labor (Art. 4, Labor Code). Such favor means regular employment since it offers a better status of the employee.
It bears noting as well that an employee who was not informed of the reasonable standards for regular employment shall be deemed as regular from day one. Thus, it makes better sense when these standards are included in the contract.
As held in Buiser vs. Leogardo, an probationary employment may also be extended upon mutual consent of the parties. This means that instead of terminating an employee who failed the trial period he is given a chance. Now, to avoid ambiguity, the employment contract should already provide a clause for this just like what is found in this template.
A sample contract will help employers to overcome the technicalities of this form of employment. This template is easy to edit using the Word application. This version is using MS Office 365.

Release, Waiver and Quitclaim Third Party Shot Dead – Soft Copy Editable Template
0 out of 5DESCRIPTION OF RELEASE, WAIVER & QUITCLAIM FOR NON-EMPLOYEE WHO WAS SHOT DEAD
This is a soft copy template saved in Word File and editable in Word Document.
This contains the sample terms, conditions, clauses, and provisions of the contract described.
See the Description below to view the Contents of this soft copy template.
This form contemplates a situation where there are claimants against the company for the alleged death caused by its security contractor who shot dead the individual or third-party individual. There are other situations where death may be caused to third party.
The challenge always is how to craft a document that will legally improve the protection of the company against any lawsuit if it intends to extend a helping hand to the relatives of spouse of the deceased.
The relative and/or spouse here is the one claiming damages against the company. While the company has several defenses in this case, the company may decide to buy peace and provide financial assistance.
In doing so, the release thereof should be documented to prevent any further action from the claimant against the company or its officers. Thus, a Release, Waiver & Quitclaim may be executed by the spouse, common law partner, or any person acting in behalf of the interests of the deceased person.
Read more..
The draft template here addresses the following concerns:
- The claimant should release and remiss the company and its officers from any claim;
- The claimant clearly states the relationship to the deceased;
- The claimant does not make any statement that will incriminate or establish criminal liability against the alleged actor or any person acting for the company;
The following terms are stated:
- Claimant is of legal age,
- Residence of the claimant
- Declaration of claimant as the duly authorized representative of the family for and in behalf of the deceased person
- Name of the deceased person
- Relationship of the claimant to the deceased person such as being the common law partner / spouse, etc.
- Description of the incident without specifying any suspect or declaring liability;
- Decision of the company to release the fund due for the above deceased as well as financial assistance;
- Statement of release, remiss and forever discharge of the company, its stockholders, Directors, Officers, President, Treasurer, executives, managers, employees, representatives and any other persons working or dealing for and in behalf thereof, from any and all liabilities, damages or injuries caused to claimant and his family or may be caused, as a result of the service not having materialized, and for any other such liabilities, damages or injuries which may now or in the future arise as a result thereof;
- If found hereinafter that there would be any other consequential or resulting damage, liability or injury, whether actual, moral, exemplary or in any other form of damage, not evident as of that time, that the amount given shall constitute as full and final settlement for such damage, liability or injury;
Statement of voluntary, free and unconditional declaration that the claimant and his family have no further claims or right of action, whether past, present, future or contingent, of whatever nature - Statement of waiver of any and all claims and causes of actions or judgments of any tribunal;
- Statement not to institute any action, whether civil, criminal, labor or administrative against the company, its directors, officers, employees, agents and clients;
- Statement that any and all actions which may have been commenced are deemed and considered voluntary withdrawn by me and he will no longer testify or continue to prosecute said action(s); and
- Statement that the claimant fully understands all the statements made.

Affidavit of Employee Consent for COVID-19 Vaccination – Soft Copy Editable Template
0 out of 5This product is a soft copy template providing sample disciplinary allegations to make this kind of affidavit.
Save time composing and typing your own version. Save money in salaries asking employees to draft and compose your own for days on end, and make it easier for you, your team, and company to draft this Affidavit.
Employee may need to be vaccinated to ensure health and safety at work. But the lingering question is if the employees can be compelled to receive COVID-19 jabs by the employer.
The right of Filipinos to health is a constitutional right. It is enshrined under Article II, Section 15 of the 1987 Constitution that the State shall protect and promote the health of the people and instill health consciousness among them.
The State is further mandated under Article XIII, Section 11 of the Constitution to adopt an integrated and comprehensive approach to health development which shall endeavor to make essential goods, health and other social services available to all the people at affordable cost.
Republic Act No. 3720, or the “Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act,” as amended by Executive Order No. 175, s. 1987, and Republic Act No. 9711, or the “Food and Drug Administration Act of 2009,” created the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to establish and maintain a drug regulatory system to ensure the purity, safety, efficacy and quality of drugs and vaccines in the country.
Read more..
Section 21 of Republic Act No. 3720, as amended, provides that any new drug should have an authorization from the FDA based on an application containing full reports of investigations to show whether or not such drug is safe, efficacious and of good quality for use based on clinical studies, prior to manufacture, sale, importation, exportation, distribution or transfer thereof.
Pursuant to Proclamation Nos. 922 (s. 2020) and 1021 (s.2020), the Philippines was declared under a State of Public Health Emergency, and a State of Calamity due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Subsequently, Republic Act No. 11494 or the “Bayanihan to Recover as One Act” was enacted authorizing the President to suppress the COVID-19 pandemic through the procurement of drugs and vaccines.
The President of the Republic of the Philippines issued Executive Order (EO) No. 121 entitled “Granting Authority to the Director General of the Food and Drug Administration to Issue Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for COVID-19 Drugs and Vaccines, Prescribing Conditions therefore and for other Purposes.” Said issuance gave authority to the Director General to issue an EUA, and established the conditions under which said authorization may be issued.
The FDA introduced the process for the issuance of EUA to sustain and strengthen the national preparedness for the COVID-19 public health emergency. The principles of regulatory reliance and recognition are adopted to accelerate the evaluation and approval process for EUA to ensure immediate access to drug products and vaccines for COVID-19.
Since there are no laws, rules, or regulations requiring employees to undergo vaccination, the employer does not have clear legal basis to prosecute employees who may refuse to get the jab.
At any rate, the employer can obtain the consent of the employee where the latter executes a document consenting to the vaccine, accepting its risks and benefits, as well as waiver of the Data Privacy Law.
The template in this product is in Affidavit Format, written in Word 360 and is editable. Below are the contents of the Affidavit containing declarations, acknowledgment and undertaking of the employee in giving consent to the vaccination:
- Last Name, First Name, Middle Initial
- Date of Birth
- Gender
- Address
- Phone Number
- Name of Provider
- Statement of legal age
- Statement of consent
- Clause stating understanding that the vaccination is voluntary and that the employee is not required to receive this vaccine or to receive this vaccine as a condition of employment
- Acknowledge that it is not possible to predict all possible side effects or complications associated with receiving the vaccine.
- Understanding that the employer is not making any representations or warranties regarding the vaccine and its general safety
- The employee has been provided with and has read the Emergency Use Authorization (“EUA”)
- Statement that the employee was given the opportunity to ask questions about the vaccine, including but not limited to the risks and benefits of the vaccine, and all of questions have been answered to satisfaction.
- Statement that the employee read and understood the benefits and risks of vaccination, and he voluntarily assumes full responsibility for any reactions that may result from receiving the vaccine
- Understanding that the employee may be asked to remain in the vaccination administration area for 15 to 30 minutes after the vaccine is administered to be monitored for potential adverse reactions, and agree to report any complaints that I may have to the provider while there.
- After leaving the facility, understanding that if the employee experiences any side effects, he should either call his physician or go to the nearest emergency department
- Statement of understanding that in order for the vaccine to be effective, he must receive two doses
- Statement that the employee has been provided an appointment date to receive the second dose, and understand that it is solely his responsibility to return for this second dose at the scheduled time
- Acknowledgment that employee’s failure to appear for the scheduled appointment will compromise the effectiveness of the vaccination
- Authorization to the employee to use and disclose any and all information related to my priority to receive, and actual receipt of the COVID-19 vaccine, including outreach for scheduling, the date of appointments, whether the employee appears for the appointments and any information he discloses or reports to the employer relating to the experience with the vaccine, including side effects or the development of COVID-19 symptoms within the employer, including, without limitation, Human Resources, and Occupational Health and Safety Committee

Sample Contract for Part-Time Employment (English Version) – Soft Copy Editable Template
0 out of 5This is a soft copy template saved in Word File and editable in Word Document.
This contains the sample terms, conditions, clauses, and provisions of the contract described.
See the Description below to view the Contents of this soft copy template.
A part-time employee is one who is engaged to perform services for a shorter period of time than those considered as normal in the establishment. This type of employee may undergo probationary period. The probation period of a part-time employee shall be equivalent to the hours it takes a full-time employee to complete a six- month probationary period.
Thus, a part-time employee can be a regular employee also. Acquiring a regular status is not dictated by the amount of time per day one has to render service.
An employee can acquire regular status when the term of his contract shows that he is engaged in a regular or permanent status; when the term of his employment indicates that he is employed for an indefinite period; when he continues to perform work or services even after the expiration of the probationary period, and when he performs work or services usually necessary or desirable in the usual business or trade of the employer.
One’s regularity of employment is not determined by the number of hours one works but by the nature and by the length of time one has been in that particular job. (Perpetual Help Credit Cooperative vs. Faburada, G.R. No. 121948. October 8, 2001)

Now, in crafting the contract for part-time employment, the employer should bear in mind the following:
- The employment is for part-time employment only
- The contract shall clearly indicate the date of termination or termination upon completion of activity
- Compensation and benefits
- Data privacy consent clause
- Duties and responsibilities
- Place of posting and transfer
- Office Decorum
