Record a Return from a Leave of Absence

You can record a return from a leave of absence by submitting a Return to Work form.

To submit a Return to Work form:

  1. Go to People, open the employee profile, and click Forms.
  2. Select the Return to Work form.
  3. Note: Dayforce automatically populates any fields that already have values in the employee's records in People. Only update these fields if they have changed.
  4. Enter the return to work date in the Actual Return Date field.
  5. Select an employment status in the Status drop-down list. Typically, this is Active, but depending on how Dayforce is configured, there might be several different statuses that represent returning from a leave of absence.
  6. Update the remaining fields. For example, to configure a new pay rate upon returning to work, enter the new hourly rate or yearly salary value in the Job Rate/Salary field.
  7. Attach additional information to the Supporting Documents section of the form. See Attach Files to Forms.
  8. Click Submit.
