Practice question
A complex probationary job has no disclosed regularization standards at engagement. No recognized exception applies. The employer later invokes a quota first introduced after hiring. Under Aliling, which is correct?
- The failure to communicate the required standards at engagement undermines the claimed probationary basis
- A quota invented later always applies retroactively
- The employee had to guess every undisclosed target
- Calling the job probationary necessarily cures the omission
- No worker can challenge a probation label
