Leaving the Surplus/SROA Process

When you leave the surplus/SROA process, you lose your hiring preference.

Voluntary

You can leave the surplus/SROA process voluntarily. Contact your personnel office at the phone number on your certification letter. If you change your mind later, you can only rejoin the process if your department is still laying off employees.

Also, the time you were in the surplus/SROA process counts against your 120 days.

Involuntary

A department can remove you from the surplus/SROA process if you

• don't respond to a contact,
• don't schedule or appear for an interview, or
• refuse a second valid job offer.

Also, you will leave the surplus/SROA process automatically after 120 days.

After You Accept a Job

The hiring department will remove you from the surplus/SROA process when you accept a job.

Limited term and temporary jobs don't count.
