On this article you will learn how to reactivate a separated employee back on to your PayrollHero account.

PayrollHero does not delete employees once they have been separated, they remain on the system under the “Separated” section. One of the multiple advantages of this is that if you rehire that employee, it is very easy to restore his old profile onto the system.
