A company wants to reinstate benefits for employees rehired within six months of their termination date. How will you configure this?
A.
Create a new benefit plan and select Reinstatement Event check, and enter a Reinstatement Period of six months. Enter the Rehire Employee Business Process and the reason for rehire in the Events and Reasons section.
B.
Create a notification in the hire business process to alert the benefits administrator, who will manually reinstate the benefits for the rehire.
C.
Create an enrollment event type and select Reinstatement Event, and enter a Reinstatement Period of six months. Enter the Hire Employee Business Process and the reason for rehire in the Events and Reasons section.
D.
Mark the rehire benefit event type as a reinstatement event, and configure the rehire business process with a six month step delay.
The correct answer is C because reinstatement of benefits for rehired employees is configured through an Enrollment Event Type , not at the individual benefit plan level. Workday uses the enrollment event type to define whether a rehire should trigger reinstatement behavior, how long the reinstatement window remains valid, and which business processes and reasons should launch that event. By selecting Reinstatement Event and setting the Reinstatement Period to six months, the system can determine whether a rehired employee falls within the allowed timeframe to restore prior benefit elections.
Associating the event with the Hire Employee business process and the correct rehire reason ensures the event is triggered automatically when the rehire occurs. Option A is incorrect because reinstatement is not configured on a benefit plan itself. Option B is not appropriate because manual reinstatement introduces inconsistency and bypasses standard event automation. Option D is also incorrect because a step delay in the business process does not define reinstatement logic or prior-election restoration rules. The correct design is to configure a reinstatement-enabled enrollment event type tied to the rehire process.
