Service Credit toward Probationary/Trial Period
I’m looking for input from HR experts or people who have had personal experience with this issue.I am in negotiation to start a new excepted service position. The Trump administration changed the rules to require a two-year probationary period for excepted service instead of one. I previously served in exactly the same position with the same agency and have no break in service, but I guess unfortunately for me I was in that position for one year and 11 months. I read 5 CFR 11.4 (“counts toward”) to mean that that service can count toward that probationary period in a pro rated manner (that is, if I did a year and a half in that previous position, I would have to do six more months on probation), but HR is reading it to mean all or nothing - that is, if I previously served one year and 364 days in the position, I have to start again from the beginning, none of that counts. I don’t trust my HR so I’m wondering if anyone has a definitive answer on this?5 CFR 11.4 Crediting service.(a) Prior Federal civilian service (including nonappropriated fund service) counts toward completion of a probationary or trial period, as applicable, when the prior service:(1) Is in the same agency, e.g., Department of the Army;(2) Is in the same line of work, as determined by the employee's actual duties and responsibilities; and(3) Contains or is followed by no more than a single break in service that does not exceed 30 calendar days.
