Employees can request to work open shifts through the Planbase Slack app or through the Planbase web application.

Using the Planbase Web App

  • Getting Started: from the employee web application select the OPEN SHIFTS panel from the sidebar

    • Planbase will only show you shifts which are compatible with your schedule

  • If you see a shift which you'd like to work you can use the waving hand icon!

  • You'll be asked to confirm the times which you are available - if you'd like to work a shift but are not available for the whole time you can input the times that you will be available here!

  • You'll be notified once your request is approved by your employer!


Using the Planbase Slack App

  • Getting Started: Type open shifts in the Planbase Slack app to view all shifts which are available to you

    • Planbase will only show you shifts which are compatible with your schedule

  • If you see a shift which you'd like to work you can select from the following options:

    • I can work this time: if you are available and would like to claim the shift as is

    • I can work part of this time: if you'd like to claim the shift but can't work it all

  • You'll receive a notification as soon as your request is approved!
