This section provides an overview of the layoff and recall process and describes how to:
Define groups of workers to layoff or recall.
Manage layoffs.
Manage recall rights.
Manage recalls and reinstatements.
Processing layoffs and recalls using PeopleSoft Mass Update.
Run layoff, recall, and reinstatement reports.
Effective Date |
You can enter any number of effective-dated rows into a roster, but only one row per calendar day. When you insert a new row, the system makes the previous rows unavailable for entry. You can create future-dated rosters and insert future-dated rows into a roster. You can generate and maintain future-dated rosters, but you cannot process them for layoff, reinstatement, or recalls. |
Mass Update to be used |
Select to use mass update to update workers' Job Data records with their layoff or recall status instead of the Run Layoff Process or Run Recall Process processes. When you select the Mass Update to be used check box the system makes the Run Layoff Process or Run Recall Process buttons unavailable. Use the Process Recall Rights process to update candidates' Recall Rights records. See Processing Layoffs and Recalls Using PeopleSoft Mass Update. |
Group ID |
Select the ID of the group containing the candidates used for this roster. The system displays the Labor Agreement associated with the group ID. The system displays the groups you created in the Labor Group Definition component (HR_LBR_GRP_DEFN) and groups created in the Group Build - Group Definition component (GB_GRP_DEFN_TABLE). You can only select groups with a valid labor agreement. Note. You must select a Group ID to create a layoff roster. To create a recall roster, you can select a Group ID or a Layoff Roster ID. |
Labor Agreement |
Collective labor agreement managing the labor administration between a group of workers and the organization. |
Seniority Dates or Seniority Date ID |
Select the seniority dates the system should use to sort the candidates in the roster. Only those seniority dates assigned to the specified Labor Agreement are available for selection. The sequence number of each seniority date entered specifies the sequence the system should use to sort the candidates in the roster. You cannot select a seniority date more than once. |
Tie Breakers or Tie Breaker ID |
Select the tie breakers the system should use to rank the candidates in the roster in the event that people share seniority dates and indicate if the system should apply the tie breaker in ascending or descending order. Only those tie breakers assigned to the specified Labor Agreement are available for selection. The sequence number of each tie breaker entered specifies the order in which the system should implement them. You cannot select a tie breaker more than once. For example, if you select a tie breaker based on the national identification number and select the Descending Order? check box, the system identifies those people with a higher national identification number as having more seniority in the event that there is a tie for seniority. |
|
When you've defined the extraction criteria for the roster, save the page. The system will make the Generate List button available. Click to generate a roster list. The system will set the roster status to In Progress and move you to the next page in the component. When you generate a:
|
|
Click to update the roster. The system will insert a new, effective-dated row and generate a new roster list for that row. The system will include candidates that you had manually added to the previous roster. The system retains the previous roster but makes it display-only. Note. If you have processed anyone on the roster, you cannot refresh it. This is enables you to maintain history and data integrity. |
|
If you make some changes to the roster setup, for example change a seniority date or Group ID, click to generate a new roster list. The system completely overwrites the previous roster withe the regenerated one. Note. If you have processed anyone on the roster, you cannot regenerate it. This is enables you to maintain history and data integrity. |
Roster Status |
Insert a new row and update the roster status as needed. When you create a roster, the system assigns the status to Open. When you generate the roster, the system sets the status to In Progress. When you select a roster of Closed, the system makes the roster component unavailable for entry. Use the other statuses to manage the roster process. |
Default Rehire Date |
Enter the default hire date. The system will populate the roster Rehire Date field with this value. |
Nbr in Group to Consider (number in group to consider) |
Enter the number of candidates in the group you are considering for layoff or recall. The system will populate the list with this number of candidates, taking from the top of the list as determined by the seniority date(s). For example, if there are a total of thirty people in the group and you want to consider ten of them for layoff, the system will populate the roster with the ten most junior people, as determined by the selected seniority date, from that group of thirty. |
|
Click after you've selected how many candidates you want to consider and the system will populate the roster list. |
Total in Group |
Displays the total number of people defined by the selected group ID, including candidates that you have added manually. |
Apply To |
Choose whether to apply a status to all candidates, just those displayed on the page, or on an individual basis (select those candidates for the selected status using the Select check box in the grid). |
Status |
Select a status to apply to multiple candidates in the roster. |
|
Click to apply the status you selected in the Status field to the candidates. |
|
This icon indicates that a candidate was added to the roster manually. The only candidates you can remove from a roster are those that are added manually. |
Tie |
Selected if the system had to use a tie breaker to determine the candidate's ranking because more than one person shared seniority. |
|
Click to add comments to a candidate. You can add multiple, effective-dated comments. The system creates a note for those candidates who were affected by a tie breaker, indicating that a tie breaker was used and what it determined the candidate's ranking to be. |
Rank |
The system lists the candidates by seniority and tie breaker. To modify the list order, enter a new ranking number. Note. Candidates you've added to the roster manually have a permanent rank of zero (0). |
Select |
Click to select individuals people to apply roster status to as a group. For example, to apply the roster status of Layoff Accepted to the four candidates who have accepted to date, select the candidates, select the Individual Apply To value, select the status in the Status field, and click Apply. |
Status |
Select the candidates roster status. |
To define groups of workers to layoff or recall, use the Labor Group Definition component (HR_LBR_GRP_DEFN).
This section discusses how to:
Define groups.
Select group members.
Maintain group security.
Note. You can also access the Labor Group Definition component from a link on the Layoff Roster Setup page or Recall Roster Setup page.
Note. You can also create groups using the Group Build - Group Definition component but the groups must include a single, valid labor agreement as a part of the definition for them to be valid selections on the Layoff Roster component (HR_LAYOFF_ROSTER) and the Recall Roster component (HR_RECALL_ROSTER). Groups are not used with the Reinstatement Roster component (HR_REINST_ROSTER).

Expected Reinstatement Date |
If you've selected a roster type of Temporary, the system displays this field. Enter the date you expect to reinstate the workers. |
|
Click to run the Layoff process. The system will move you to the Layoff Process search component. You can process candidates in batches. The layoff process processes those candidates who have a status with the Process Event? check box selected as part of its definition. After the layoff process processes candidates with a process event status, the system resets the candidates' status to one with the Event Complete? check box selected as part of its definition. The layoff process will not reprocess candidates with an event complete status. To process another group of candidates, set the status of a new group of candidates to a process event status and run the layoff process again. This button is not available when you use Mass Update to update workers Job Data records. |
Candidates to be processed: |
Displays the number of candidates the Layoff Process will process. Note. The Layoff Process will process those candidates with a status that has the Process Event? check box selected. |
Note. You cannot remove candidates who were included in the roster because they were a part of the selected group.
Adding Candidates Manually
You can manually add candidates to the roster (for example, workers who were bumped from their position). To add a candidate manually, add a row and select an EmplID and employee record number. Click the Man Emp (Manual Employee) button to retrieve the person's job details. When the person's details have been retrieved the button becomes display only. The system assigns all manually-added candidates the permanent rank of zero.
The system updates the Nbr in Group to Consider and Total in Group values to reflect the additional candidates.
Note. You can remove candidates who were manually added to the roster.
Access the Layoff Process Run Control page (click the Process Layoff button on the Layoff Roster List page).
The layoff process:
Inserts a new row in the Job Data pages with the effective date of the layoff.
The system copies all of the data from the previous Job Data row to the new row and includes the Action and Action Reason values you select here. If the system is unable to enter a job row for an employee due to an error on their job record a message will be entered for that employee number in the log.
Inserts a new row into the Recall Rights page with the effective date of the layoff.
The system enters the value of Layoff in the Reason field.
The system calculates the Expiration Date using the recall expiration rule attached to the labor agreement being processed.
The system will not insert a record into the Recall Rights page:
If you select the Auto Reinstatement check box on the Layoff Process Run Control page.
If the candidate does not have a value for the seniority date used by the recall expiration rule to calculate recall rights.
If the Recall Expiration rule attached to the Labor Agreement is a No Recall rule.
Updates the status of the processed candidates in the layoff roster with an event complete status.
Note. If the system encounters any errors when processing a candidate's layoff, the system will skip the person and enter a note into the process logged. The Layoff process includes the candidate on post processing reports, but their job data information is blank.
Roster ID |
Displays the ID of the roster from which the process was launched. |
Action and Action Reason |
Select the action the layoff process is executing and the reason for the action. The system will insert these values into the Job Data row it creates for the people it is processing for lay off. |
Auto Reinstatement
The auto reinstatement fields are available for temporary layoffs only.
Auto Reinstatement |
Select if all of the people being laid off are to be reinstated at the same time. If you use the Auto Reinstatement field, the system will not insert a record into the Recall Rights page for the candidates being laid off. Note. When you select an action, ensure that this action corresponds to the layoff Action. For example, if you process the layoff with the action of LOF (layoff), you can only reinstatement the candidates using the REC (recall) action. Candidates laid off with the action TER (termination) can only be reinstated with the action of REH (rehire). |
Action and Action Reason |
Select the action and the action reason for the reinstatement |
Reinstatement Date |
The system populates this with the expected reinstatement date from the layoff roster when you select the Auto Reinstatement check box, but you can edit it if necessary. |
The Layoff Process produces two reports:
Layoff Roster Post Processing (HRLAY006).
This report displays a list of those workers laid off.
The Layoff Roster Post Processing report lists candidates that were not processed for layoff successfully without job data. Review this report to identify candidates that were not processed by looking for those without job data on this report.
Recall Rights Post Processing (HRLAY007).
This report lists those workers who have received recall rights.
Note. The system does not generate this report if you select the Auto Reinstatement check box.
To manage recall rights, use the Process Recall Rights component (HR_RUNCTL_RGT) and the Recall Rights component (HR_RCL_RIGHTS) .
This section discusses how to:
Process recall rights.
Maintain recall rights.
Note. Recall rights are the rights a laid off worker has to accept a lower level job (bumping) or to be recalled back to work when a position becomes available. Each labor agreement has a recall expiration rule that calculates how long a worker has recall rights following a layoff and under what circumstances those rights would expire.

To manage recalls and reinstatements, use the Recall Roster component (HR_RECALL_ROSTER), the Reinstatement Roster component (HR_REINST_ROSTER), and the Recall/Reinstatement Process component (HR_RUNCTL_REINSTAT).
This section provides an overview of reinstatements and recalls and discusses how to:
Set up a recall roster.
Manage a recall roster.
Set up a reinstatement roster.
Manage a reinstatement roster.
Process recalls and reinstatements.
You have two methods of rehiring employees laid off using the Layoff process. The Reinstatement process is intended to enable you to rehire laid off workers quickly while the Recall process gives you some more flexibility in who you rehire and how, but takes a bit more time. This table lists some of the key differences between the two processes:
Recalls |
Reinstatements |
Populate the roster with rehire candidates from a group or from a layoff roster. |
Populate the roster with reinstatement candidates from a layoff roster only. |
Candidates are sorted by seniority and tie breakers. |
Candidates are sorted by EmplID number |
You can use PeopleSoft Mass Update, instead of the recall process, to update the system with the candidates' recall information. |
You can only update the system with the Reinstatement process. |

To populate the recall roster with members in a group, select a group ID. If you select a group ID, confirm that it includes candidates with the HR status you want for this roster (either Active or Active and Inactive). |
Layoff Roster ID |
To populate the recall roster with workers laid off from a roster, select the ID of the layoff roster. When generating the roster, the system first checks that the layoff for those candidates was successful and excluded those candidates that weren't successfully laid off. |
Access the Recall Roster List (Workforce Administration, Labor Administration, Layoffs and Recalls, Recall Roster, Recall Roster List).
The system will populate the Recall/Reinstatement Roster in one of two different ways:
If the labor agreement has a no recall expiration rule, the system populates the roster with candidates that were previously laid off.
If the labor agreement has recall expiration rule that gives workers recall rights, the system populates the roster with candidates who have been previously laid off and who have valid recall rights.
Those workers whose recall rights have expired (as determined by the recall rights expiration rule attached to their labor agreement) are not eligible for recall.
You can process candidates in batches. The recall process processes those candidates who have a status with the Process Event? check box selected as part of its definition. After the recall process processes candidates with a process event status, the system resets the candidates' status to one with the Event Complete? check box selected as part of its definition. The recall process will not reprocess candidates with an event complete status.
To process another group of candidates, set the status of a new group of candidates to a process event status and run the recall process again.
Click Process Recall to access the Recall/Reinstatement Process page and process the candidates for recall.
Adding Candidates Manually
You can manually add candidates to the roster (for example, only six former workers still have recall rights but you need to recall eight). To add a candidate manually, add a row and select an EmplID and employee record number. Click the Man Emp (Manual Employee) button to retrieve the person's job details. Once the worker's details have been retrieved, the button becomes display only. The system assigns all manually-added candidates the permanent rank of zero.
