Probation refers to a period during which a person's behavior is monitored to determine if they will comply with certain conditions or demonstrate improvement, often used in legal and employment contexts. In criminal justice, it allows offenders to serve their sentences in the community under supervision instead of incarceration. In employment, it is a trial period for new employees to evaluate their performance and fit within the organization. Successful completion of probation can lead to permanent status or reduced restrictions.
