At our organisation, we aim to make scheduling as fair and straightforward as possible for everyone. To help us do this effectively, we ask all team members to follow the guidelines below.
Leave Requests
If you need to request time off, please ensure your leave request is submitted at least 4 weeks before the date you wish to take off. This gives us enough time to ensure adequate cover and make any necessary arrangements. Requests submitted with less notice may not be able to be accommodated, so please plan ahead wherever possible.
Submitting Your Availability
All availability must be submitted through Deputy. Please make sure your availability is up to date and accurate, as this is what we use when building the schedule. If your availability changes, update it on Deputy as soon as possible and let your manager know.
How Shifts Are Assigned
Shifts for the following month will be assigned during the second week of each month. This means you should have your availability submitted on Deputy before this window to ensure your preferences are taken into account. Once shifts have been assigned, you will be able to view your schedule on Deputy.
General Reminders
Please check your schedule regularly and flag any issues with @Farid on WhatsApp as soon as they arise. We appreciate everyone's cooperation in keeping this process running smoothly- the more organised we all are, the easier it is to build a schedule that works for the whole team.
If you have any questions about the scheduling process, don't hesitate to speak to your manager.
