Reinstatements For Back Pay

When an employee no longer has an active appointment anywhere on campus, he/she will become terminated in PHR and at the Central Payroll Bureau (CPB).  At this point PHR does not allow the creation of any pay adjustments. If the department/unit owes the employee wages and/or a leave payment,  the department/unit must submit the Reinstatement for Back Payment Form so the employee can be temporarily activated.

Requesting Reinstatement of an Inactive Employee
  • Complete the Reinstatement for Back Pay form.  Access it here.
  • Email the completed form to Payroll Services at payrollservices@umd.edu, no later than 4 p.m. on Day 10 of the current pay period (Day 9 in an accelerated pay period).

Payroll Services will create the adjustment for pay and a paper check will be issued on pay day. Reinstatements do not show up on the pay calculation screen.
