In a society where people’s ability to pay for their basic needs were not tied to their income, employment probation periods might be reasonable. But hiring people only to fail them on probation, not for anything they did or didn’t do, but because you now think you need someone with a slightly different skill set, is inhumane. Certainly for the fired employee, also for the other employees on fixed term contracts or probation who now have ZERO idea if they will be employed next week.
