Holding an Employee after a Job Offer
When a surplus/SROA employee accepts a job offer, work with the hiring department. Both departments will benefit if you release the employee as soon as possible. You can hold the employee for 30 days. (See SPB rule 425.)
When an employee accepts a job offer with a start date, the employee has the right to take the job. The employee stays in the surplus/SROA process until the job starts. This applies even if your department subsequently decides the employee isn't facing layoff.
