How the calculation works

The standard option adds six calendar months to the employee’s start date. Month calculations account for differing month lengths and leap years. A custom period remains available for employment arrangements that require a different calculation.

Philippine legal context

Applicable law, jurisprudence, the employment agreement, apprenticeship arrangements, and the nature of employment may affect the legally applicable probationary period. The result does not determine whether an employee is regular or validly probationary.

Important

The calculated date is an estimate, not an automatic legal conclusion or individualized advice.

Practical example

A six-calendar-month calculation preserves the corresponding day of the month where possible and uses the last valid day when the ending month is shorter.

Frequently asked questions

How does the calculator apply the six-month period?+

It adds six calendar months to the employee start date and accounts for the actual lengths of the months involved.

When does the probationary period start?+

The calculator uses the employee start date entered. The legally relevant starting point may require review of the employment arrangement.

When does it end?+

The displayed date follows the six-calendar-month arithmetic method; legal characterization requires review of the governing facts and documents.
