The duration of a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) typically depends on the specific circumstances and the nature of the performance issues. However, as a standard practice, most organizations set the duration between 30 to 90 days. This timeframe allows the employee to improve upon their performance issues while giving the supervisor sufficient time to assess the improvement.

Here\'s a step by step guide on how a PIP is typically implemented:
1. Initial meeting: Discuss the performance issue(s) with the employee and develop the PIP.
2. Set the duration: The PIP duration is set, typically between 30 to 90 days.
3. Regular check-ins: Regular progress meetings are scheduled for the supervisor and employee to discuss progress.
4. Evaluation: At the end of the PIP duration, the supervisor evaluates the employee\'s performance against the goals set in the PIP.

Keep in mind that this is a general guideline; the specifics can vary depending on the organization\'s policies and the country\'s labor laws. In your case, as you\'re from New Delhi, India, it will be beneficial to review the guidelines provided by the Indian Labor Laws or consult with a local HR expert for a more precise understanding.

Companies often tailor their processes according to their specific needs. However, a standard Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) typically spans 90 days. This duration ensures that the employee has sufficient time to enhance their performance. Conducting an appraisal at the end of the 30th and 60th days is crucial. These appraisals act as checkpoints to evaluate the employee\'s progress. They also clarify to the employee that the period between the 60th and 90th day marks the final observation period.
