Due to Centralized services Data Validation for Job Information which is enhanced to improve data quality.
Resolution
This is an Expected behavior.
As long as an EC user exists, they need to have one HIRE record.
Based on what exactly customer wants to achieve, we need to use appropriate transaction for the same.
Examples:
1)If the hire record has an incorrect start date
This can be changed via the Hire Date Correction tool.
2)Changes to any other fields including the event reason can be made via the History or full purge import.
