Question
How do I reactivate a terminated employee?
Answer
Bringing back a previous employee? No problem!
When you terminate/deactivate an employee, their file isn't deleted. You can easily reactivate them, and they'll go back into your EH platform with all their details saved, ready for the next pay run.
Warning
Reactivated employees will have the same employment type as when you initially terminated them. You need to update their employment type if there have been any adjustments after reactivation.
Reactivate an employee
- Go to People > Employee List.
- Click the Employee Status dropdown and select Terminated to filter the list.
- Find the employee you want to reactivate (you can scroll or use the search bar).
- Click the Actions dropdown next to their name and select + Re-activate employee.
- In the pop-up window, set their new Start Date and choose whether to trigger the onboarding checklists.
- Click the Re-activate button.
- That's it! The employee is now active in the platform again.
