A Workplace can cancel a shift (or end it earlier than scheduled) at any time. However, canceling shifts on short notice has a significant impact on our marketplace and the workers seeking opportunities. We encourage you to cancel your shifts more than 24 hours in advance.
- If a worker has not booked your shift, you can delete the shift without any cancellation fee by following the instructions available here.
- If a worker has already booked your shift, you may be subject to a cancellation fee, as detailed below.
Please make sure your team is aware of the shift cancellation provisions in your account's agreement, including any applicable fees, before canceling a shift.
Note: Any applicable cancellation fee will be waived when canceling a worker with an estimated arrival that is 20 minutes (or more) past the shift's scheduled start-time. Please follow this guide instead if you are canceling or reporting a late arrival.
Cancellation rules
Upon cancelling a shift, you may be charged according to the rates and terms stated in the contract with your workplace. Please consult your agreement to check the charges that may apply.
- If your workplace cancels a shift outside of the timeframe specified in the contract terms, no cancellation fees will be applied.
- If your workplace cancels a shift within the timeframe specified in the contract terms, the workplace must pay a cancellation fee of the agreed-upon rate in the contract terms.
