Staff Availability on the Rota

Staff can tell you when they can and can't work before you plan the rota:

  • Employees mark times as free or busy, with an optional reason.
  • Managers see each person's availability when choosing who to assign to a shift.
  • Availability is also shown next to the staff already assigned to each shift.

Employees set their availability in a few clicks, on the web or in the app, for a few hours, a whole day or a longer period.

For managers

When you assign a shift, the assignment menu shows who is free and who is busy.

You can turn availability off in the workforce settings if you don't need it, and choose whether staff can see each other's availability or only their own.

To check that staff have seen the shifts you give them, use shift agreements.
