How to Cancel a Termination Using the Termination Form

Instructions for canceling a scheduled employee termination using the Termination Form.

Note:

This guide covers how to use the new Termination Form to terminate an employee. These updates are only available to a select group of Namely clients who have received early access. If you are not included in this group, please refrain from consulting this guide until the feature is released to all clients.

Depending on the Namely features your company uses, there are potentially three windows dictating your ability to cancel or reverse actions in a termination.

In each instance, you can initiate the cancelation by clicking Rescind Termination on the banner that appears on the employee’s profile after the termination has been launched.

Window 1

From the moment the Termination Form is opened until 11:59 PM ETC on the date the Termination Form is launched

During Window 1, all actions in the Termination Form are reversible. Rescinding the termination will clear all values entered into all fields.

Note:

If the termination date or pay through dates entered are before the launch date, the employee will need to be rehired. For more information, see Rehires in Namely.

Window 2

From 11:59 PM ETC on the date the Termination Form is launched until 11:59 PM ETC on the termination date

During Window 2, all events that have occurred in Namely HR or Payroll can be reversed upon clicking Rescind Termination except benefits termination. The employee will need to re-enroll to continue receiving benefits.

Window 3

After 11:59 PM ETC on the termination date / pay through date

After the termination date and/or pay through date has passed, the termination is final and nothing can be reversed. The Rescind Termination button will not display on the employee’s profile, and the employee will need to be rehired.
