The present invention comprises a system and method for determining the reverse voltage and time to apply to the dechucking of a workpiece from an electrostatic chuck (ESC). The system for dechucking comprises a processing chamber operatively coupled to a microprocessor and a memory that is configured to determine the dechucking parameters for the workpiece. The method for determining dechucking parameters comprises generating a correlation between ESC resistance and dechucking parameters, performing a single experimental test on a new ESC and generating a fitting parameter, and using the correlation and the fitting parameter to determine the dechucking parameters.
