Re-employment Opportunities (Re-Op) Pool

The Re-Employment Opportunities (Re-Op) Pool should be used for employees on leave without pay-layoff.  The program is voluntary; however, employees should be encouraged to have their credentials entered into the centralized database that Executive Branch agencies can use to fill vacancies before advertising positions or listing them in the Recruitment Management System. 

Employees should be informed that participation in the Re-Op Pool is strictly voluntary and completion of the Employee Participation Response Form is used to determine whether the employee wants to be included in the Re-Op Pool. Employees should also be informed that the information provided will be incorporated into a file within the Re-Op database, accessible to state agencies when searching for qualified applicants. 

To access the Re-Op Pool, agency human resources staff should request a username and password from the Department of Human Resource Management (DHRM). To obtain a username and password, complete the registration form available on the DHRM web site accessible through the ACCESS TO DHRM WEB APPLICATION.

The Re-Op Pool is accessible from http://web1.dhrm.virginia.gov/itech. After obtaining access to the web application, agencies can enter employees’ information into the system and access computerized displays of state employees who have been laid off and desire to return to state employment.

Please contact Pat Waller at patricia.waller@dhrm.virginia.gov if you any questions regarding the Re-Op Pool.
