Make your Free Recall to Work Letter

A Recall to Work Letter is used by employers to invite a previously furloughed or laid off employee back to work. At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, many businesses had to furlough or lay off employees to cut costs if they were shut down or operating in a limited capacity. With the country slowly opening up in some areas, you might need a Recall to Work Letter to re-staff your business.

If you have questions about reopening during the COVID-19 pandemic, ask a lawyer or find more resources in our Coronavirus (COVID-19) Legal Center.

Use the Recall to Work Letter document if:

• You have an uptick of business and need more employees
• You are reopening your business and need to staff it

A Recall to Work Letter can help employers bring back staff when they are ready to reopen for business. In addition to inviting an employee back from furlough or a layoff, an employer may also define new terms of employment, such as a change in schedule. The letter can be drafted in minutes, just by answering a few simple questions.
