Table of Contents
A blackout period is a defined range of dates during which employees are not permitted to submit or change their availability. This feature is useful for times when staffing needs are critical — such as busy seasons, store events, inventory counts, or holidays – and you need all team members available to work.
Managers and supervisors can still manually add requests for employees.
To add an availability blackout:
- Go to MANAGE MY BUSINESS
- Go to MANAGE AVAILABILITY BLACKOUT PERIODS
- Click ADD
NOTE – you can restrict blackouts to specific departments as well.
