# How do I De-list an Employee?

De-list is used to remove both the personal and pay data of an employee from the
payroll. The de-listed employee will then not appear in your payroll in any list
of employees, or in any reports or returns. It is a useful tool if, for example,
you accidentally duplicate an employee’s records on the payroll.
Please note: the personal and pay data at the time of being de-listed will not
be completely deleted from the system. It will be retained in the De-listed
Basket. The employer, an auditor, or the HRMC can come and audit the data and
trace what has happened at any time within 6 years.



To delist, select De-List / Recover Employees from the “Others” drop down menu.
Click on De-List Employees. You can see a list of all your employees on the
screen. Double check that you are de-listing the correct employee. Please note
that the De-listed Employee's current tax year pay data will be permanently
lost. The Employee's Work Number can not be re-used. Further, click on the
De-list link for the employee you wish to De-list. To confirm the De-listing of
this employee enter your Sign In Password and click on the Confirm button. Once
you confirm the De-list, the employee will be removed from the payroll. The
employee will be successfully de-listed and will now not appear in your payroll,
in any list of employees, or in any reports or returns.
