Rehiring employee

Question

Hi,i had a full time employee who wanted to change from full time to casual. i did final pay and unused holiday/ long service payout “upon termination”. Instead of upon service by mistake. So i had to report him terminated in stp2. &nbsp;I do not want to open a new card for him on myob as that would create two payment summaries at EOFY. I read on ATO website that we can just undo termination on stp2 and start paying as normal. Can someone please confirm i do not need to &nbsp;do anything else? Also on his employee card on Myob, Do i need to change the start date to new start date as casual? Or keep same start date as 10 years ago? Other than changing his employment to casual and removing all entitlements what else do i need to do please? Do i need to make changes in super clearing house as well? Or keep paying super as normal? Thank you

Hi yoshu,

Since you mistakenly terminated the employee, you can indeed reverse the termination. Here's a helpful link to assist you with this, Reinstating an employee. After reversing the termination, update the employee's status to "Casual" in their employment details. Since they're now casual, review any entitlement categories (such as leave) to ensure they're appropriate for a casual employee. Also, check with your super clearing house to confirm if any adjustments are required for superannuation contributions, though typically, this change shouldn't affect super payments.
&nbsp;
This adjustment won't create two payment summaries as longs as you don't create a new employee card. The existing record will consolidate all payments for the financial year.
