Shift - What is an Open Shift? Tutorial
In this video, you will learn about what an open shift is.
An open shift is an open slot that allows the manager to create a task without assigning it to someone.
It provides flexibility for managers to remove the shift if it's no longer necessary or propose it openly to avoid overcharging a specific employee.
As an employee, you cannot proactively take an open shift, but you can ask the manager to assign it to you.
Understanding open shifts will help you manage tasks and schedules more efficiently.
