### sec.5.12 Appointment on probation This section does not apply in relation to an appointment as an officer made on a contract basis. An appointment as an officer of a person who was not an officer immediately before the appointment is an appointment on probation— for a period not less than 12 months determined by the commissioner; or in the absence of such a determination, for a period of 12 months. Unless the position as an officer is advertised in the Queensland Police Gazette as one to which appointment is to be made without a period of probation, an appointment of an officer to a position on promotion is an appointment on probation— for a period not less than 6 months determined by the commissioner; or in the absence of such a determination—for a period of 6 months. The commissioner may— in respect of an appointee referred to in subsection (2) — at any time during the initial period of probation or during any extension of a period of probation, terminate the employment of the appointee; or at the end of any period of probation, confirm the appointment, extend or further extend the period of probation or terminate the employment of the appointee; or in respect of an appointee referred to in subsection (3) whose appointment is on probation— at any time during the initial period of probation or during any extension of a period of probation, terminate that appointment; or at the end of any period of probation, confirm the appointment, extend or further extend the period of probation or terminate that appointment. If an appointment is terminated under subsection (4) (b) , the person who was the appointee is to be retained in employment as an officer at a level of salary not less than the level of salary of the person immediately before the appointment that is terminated until— the person is appointed to another position in the service; or the person is otherwise dealt with under this Act.
