Terminating a worker archives their record, expires the site-specific skills configured to lapse on termination, and tells your access systems straight away — so a departed worker loses site access at once. Re-hire rules decide what carries back if they return.
This guide covers:
- Archiving a worker to begin termination
- Expiring the site-specific skills set to lapse on termination, by backdating their review date to today
- Notifying the access systems so cards and the safety platform react immediately
- Keeping portable certifications, such as online-course completions, which are excluded by default
Terminate with confidence that access closes the moment you act, while a worker’s portable training survives for any future re-hire.
💡 Power User Insight: Online-course certifications are kept by default on termination, so a re-hired worker doesn’t redo portable training — only the site-specific skills configured to expire need re-qualifying. Set re-hire exclusions on the account to control this.
