Shift Agreements: Staff Accept or Decline

After you assign a shift, the employee can mark it as accepted. If you allow it, they can also decline it.

The rota shows which shifts have been accepted, so you can see at a glance who has seen their shifts.

Use it your way

  • Ask staff to accept every shift you assign, so you know they have seen it.
  • Allow declines, and rearrange cover when someone can't work a shift.
  • Before a shift is assigned, let staff mark it as one they are willing, or reluctant, to work, with shift interest.
  • Choose whether staff can see each other's agreements, or only managers.
  • Turn shift agreements off in the workforce settings if you don't need them.
