reinstatement

Getting position back

Reinstatement is the act of restoring someone or something to a former position, condition, or status.

An employee fired unfairly may seek reinstatement to their job.

A suspended license undergoes reinstatement when the penalty period ends.

The word implies returning to a state that previously existed: The court ordered his reinstatement with back pay.
