# Rehire a Terminated Employee

## Many employees decide to return or companies bring back a previously terminated employee. The article below will outline the steps needed to reactivate an old employee.

**Step 1**

In order to rehire a previously existing employee, you will need to pull up the employee profile and remove the "Termination Date."

- The list of terminated/Inactive employees can be found under the Employees Tab > Search Employees. As seen below, you will need to show the advanced filter, and check "Show Terminated"

- Once inside the employee profile, the termination date can be found under the **Information** tab.

**Step 2**

After removing the termination date, you will need to set up the employee default availability, Position, and Team

- First you will want to set the Default Team and Position, this can be found at the top of the "Availability Tab" ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/0c1ef627-c6ff-4a23-afbe-729f8c45b2d2/Images/Documentation/rehire-a-terminated-employee-image-ix75wbwb.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-07T16%3A51%3A05Z&se=2026-11-07T17%3A51%3A05Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=Cplt%2BZvl9sMCh6jmFBcuO5RC71ToVnEFJMbEmwDYM%2FY%3D)
- [Then you will want to Setup Technician Availability](/v1/docs/technician-availability-setup-faq-and-extras)

**Step 3**

The final step is to mark them as scheduled so they appear on the schedule
