período aquisitivo probationary period

Explanation:
Not sure if this is where the ... is leading, but the period before you are considered to be a "regular" employee is called the probationary period

\"accrual\" is used to refer to the compilation of interest, but also to anything that \"builds up\" - the period of time in which something is collecting/building up/increasing is the \"accrual period.\" Probationary period, in the workplace, refers to the time immediately following hiring, when a company does not have to pay benefits or give vacations. An employee can be terminated at the end of this period without having to justify the termintation. After the probationary period (often 90 days) the employee begins to receive benefits - sick leave, retirement contributions, vacation time off (which can be on an accrual basis . . 1 day per month, for example). And once the probabtionary period is over, the employer must show \"just cause\" for a termination of that employee. Does this help?
