Rehire Date in Oracle Fusion HCM

In Oracle Fusion HCM, the “Rehire Date” refers to the date on which an employee is officially rehired into the organization after a period of absence or termination. The rehire date marks the beginning of the employee’s new employment period and is an important piece of information for managing the employee’s record and benefits. Here’s how the rehire date is typically managed in Oracle Fusion HCM:

1. Accessing Employee Record: Log in to your Oracle Fusion HCM system and navigate to the employee’s record for whom you need to enter the rehire date.
2. Rehire Process: Depending on your organization’s configuration, you might need to initiate a rehire process for the employee. This could involve clicking on a “Rehire” button or selecting a rehire option within the employee’s record.
3. Enter Rehire Date: When prompted during the rehire process, enter the specific rehire date for the employee. This date marks the beginning of their new employment period.
4. Review and Confirm: Review the details you’ve entered, including the rehire date. Confirm the rehire action to complete the process.
5. Updating Records: Once the rehire date is entered, the system will update the employee’s record to reflect their rehired status. This includes updating employment history, benefits enrollment, compensation, and other relevant data.
6. Effective Date: The rehire date serves as the effective date for various changes related to the employee’s employment, such as compensation adjustments, benefits eligibility, and more.
7. Notifications: Depending on your organization’s notification settings, relevant parties such as HR personnel, managers, and the employee might receive notifications about the rehire action.
8. Additional Steps: Depending on your organization’s processes, there might be additional steps to complete after the rehire date is entered. This could include onboarding tasks, training assignments, and system access provisioning.

It’s important to note that the rehire process and terminology might vary based on the version and configuration of your Oracle Fusion HCM system. Additionally, some organizations might have different processes for rehiring employees, especially if they have unique business rules or policies.

The rehire date is significant because it re-establishes an employee’s status within the organization and impacts various HR processes such as benefits continuation, seniority calculation, and access to company resources. Always ensure that the rehire date is accurately recorded to maintain data integrity and compliance with HR policies.
