My Shifts

My Shifts is your personal dashboard where you can view your upcoming shifts, current schedule, and daily activity at a glance.


What Is This?

The My Shifts view is the employee-facing side of the Dashboard. When you open the Dashboard as an employee (or click the “My Shifts” tab as a manager), you see a personalized overview of your own schedule. It shows your upcoming shifts, current shift status, and any activities assigned to you, so you always know when and where you need to be.

A: My Shifts shows all shifts assigned to you within the currently published schedule period. If your manager has published schedules further in advance, those shifts will also appear.
