This article explains how to accept and reject a shift in RosterElf as a staff member. Shift acceptance allows you to confirm whether you can work a scheduled shift. Rejecting a shift lets you notify your manager that you are unavailable. This process helps keep rosters accurate and improves communication between staff and managers.
When shift confirmations are enabled, you may receive shifts that require action before they are locked in. Responding promptly ensures managers can make changes early if required. It also reduces confusion, missed shifts, and last-minute roster updates.
Using the RosterElf mobile app, staff can quickly review pending shifts, see shift details, and respond in just a few taps. You do not need to contact your manager separately, as your response is recorded directly in the roster.
In this guide, you will learn how to open the RosterElf app, view pending shifts, and accept or reject a shift. Each step is simple and easy to follow. Completing these steps ensures your availability is clear and your roster stays up to date.
