Assignment 1
Reg. No: SEU/IS/13/EG/011
Name: G S U Ahmadh
Disadvantages:
1) Resignation
A probation employee can resign at will, leaving the employer with an unexpected vacancy.
2) Lower Performance:
Since they may feel that their jobs are at stake, new hires can feel more stress and feel less valued
by the company. This can cause your new hires to have less confidence doing their work, resulting
in higher turnover, lower productivity and reduced work quality.
3) Creates legal risks in states where employment is at will
Employees might confuse passing the probation period as a promise of continual employment,
and they may try to take legal action against the company if they're dismissed.
4) Negatively affect your company's reputation
Prospective applicants may have less trust for a company that has a probation period since this
may indicate that the company is not confident with its hiring choices. The prospect of little job
security can also turn off qualified individuals from applying to the company, especially in a good
job market where applicants have many other choices.

Consequence of not registering the Trade Union
According to the 25 of the Trade Union Ordinance, A trade union shall not enjoy any of the rights,
immunities or privileges of a registered trade union until it is registered.
The following are the rights of a registered union which are not allowed to be enjoyed by a not
registered union.
1) No action or other legal proceeding shall be maintainable in any civil court against any registered
trade union or any officer or member thereof in respect of any act done in contemplation or in
furtherance of a trade dispute.
So, this is not applicable for a not registered union and it is applicable to be held accountable in
a civil court in respect of any act.
2) Trade union is not liable for tortious act. An action against a trade union or against any members
or officers thereof on behalf of themselves and all other members of the trade union in respect of
any tortious act alleged to have been committed by or on behalf of the trade union in
contemplation or in furtherance of a trade dispute shall not be entertained by any court.
But for a not registered Union, they can be hold accountable for such actions.
