Rehire a Retiree

Rehire a Retiree

  • Configure the
    Remove Retiree Status
     business process and security policy in the Staffing functional area.
  • Create reasons for removing retiree status using the
    Maintain Event Categories and Reasons
     task.
You can remove the retiree status from an employee in 2 ways:
  • Add the
    Remove Retiree Status
     business process to the
    Hire
    ,
    Contract Contingent Worker
    , or
    Edit Position
    business processes as an optional step after the completion step.
  • Run the
    Remove Retiree Status
     task.
  1. Access the
    Remove Retiree Status
     task.
  2. Select the retired employee.
    Workday recommends you only remove retiree status from retired workers who are being rehired or who have already been rehired.
  3. Specify an
    Effective Date
     and
    Reason
    .
Workday removes the
Retiree as Self
 and
All Retirees
 roles from the worker, and removes the worker from the retiree organization.
When you use the
Add Retiree Status
 task on an active worker who has been previously terminated, the worker status displays as (Retired - Active).
You can correct or reverse the removal of the retiree status. From the employee's related actions menu, select
Worker History
View Worker History
; then select either
Correct
 or
Rescind
 as a related action on the
Remove Retiree Status
 event.
If you need to postpone a worker's termination date, we don't recommend removing retiree status. Instead, correct the
Add Retiree Status
 and then correct the
Termination
 event.
