Other Information

BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR ONLINE RIF APPLICATION

  • You must have a personal, non-State email address. If you do not have a personal email address, you can get one free from Hotmail, Google, Yahoo! Mail, or Excite.
  • Please download the users' guide How to Submit Online RIF (Layoff) Application. The guide provides step-by-step instructions for creating and submitting your RIF (Layoff) application with the State of Hawaii Executive Branch.
  • Be organized and have the necessary documents handy for your immediate reference. For example, present and past employer(s)' address(es), phone number(s), month and year of all jobs, duties, etc.
  • If you have a lot of information to provide, first you should type it in a word processing document. Then copy and paste from the word processing document into the blocks on the RIF application.
  • The online application has a timeout feature which will automatically log you out of your application after one hour of inactivity. If you are "timed out", you will lose all information that was not saved. To avoid being timed out, we advise that you click on the 'SAVE WORK IN PROGRESS' button every 15 minutes to ensure that you do not lose information if you get disconnected from your browser.
