| | Probation and firing |
 | | Probation periods may be extended, within reason, where the employer is not convinced that the employee is performing to the required standard. |  | | The purpose of probation is to establish whether or not the appointee’s performance is of an acceptable standard before permanently employing the employee. |  | | As a general guideline, the more complex the nature of the job, the longer the probation period eg only a month may be needed to evaluate the performance of a cleaner, but four months may be appropriate for an accountant. |

 | | Probation fees are available to pay for the services provided to indigent probationers, and a gradient scale is available for those who are unable to pay for all costs. |  | | Once a particular offender is determined to be a gang member, the long process of educating them on the costs of being in a gang begins. |  | | In addition, the offender must pay for the initial polygraph examination at a cost of approximately $350.00 and for the yearly polygraph examinations at a cost of approximately $250.00 for each year they remain on probation. |

 | | Rather than counseling offenders, probation officers provided them with concrete social services such as assistance with employment, housing, finances, and education. |  | | Early probationers were expected not only to obey the law but also to behave in a morally acceptable fashion. |  | | On the state level, pursuant to the Crime Control and Consent Act passed by Congress in 1936, a group of states entered into agreement by which they would supervise probationers and parolees for each other. |
