Trade a shift with a coworker

EmployeeUpdated July 27, 2026

Hand off a shift you can't work, or pick up one you want, with your manager's approval.

A shift trade moves a published shift between two people. Your manager approves it before anything changes on the schedule.

Offer a shift you can’t work

  1. Open the shift in the app.
  2. Choose Request Trade Shift.
  3. Use Find available Shift for Trade! to see who could take it.
  4. Send the trade request.

Take a shift someone offered

  1. Open the shift post or trade offer.
  2. Choose Make an offer, and add a comment if you want.
  3. Send it.

When someone accepts your offer, a shift trade request is created and applied once an admin approves it.

Where it stands

Sent, received, approved and declined trade activity all show in your requests area. Nothing on the schedule changes until a manager approves.

Open shifts

If your manager posted a shift with no one assigned, that’s a shift post — choose Make an offer to take shift to put your name in.
