What is an availability shift in haddock HR? 🕐🧩

In haddock HR, availability shifts are the way to tell our algorithm which hours of the day an employee is available to work. 📣🕒

That way, when the system generates automatic shifts, it will know how to respect the time windows each person can offer. More accuracy and more respect for everyone's time! 🌟💬

How do you create an availability shift? 🛠️

🔹 1. Create a shift as usual ✍️

Go to the shift creation menu in haddock HR.

🔹 2. Select the "Availability" time type 🕶️

It is very important that in the time type field you choose "Availability" instead of a normal work shift. That way the system will understand it correctly. 📚✅

🔹 3. Define the start and end times ⏰

Mark the time window in which the employee will be available.

For example:

• From 9:00 to 13:00 if they are only available in the morning.
• From 16:00 to 22:00 if they can only work in the afternoon.

🔹 24-hour availability? 😱

You can do that too!

If you want an employee to be available all day, simply enter the same time for the start and end. For example:

From 10:00 to 10:00 = available for 24 continuous hours. 🔄🌍

Benefits of using availability shifts 🎯

✅ The algorithm will respect each person's real availability windows.

✅ You avoid conflicts or impossible assignments.

✅ You schedule in a fairer, more efficient, and more human way. ❤️🧠

With availability shifts in haddock HR, you set the rules and the system follows them! ⚡🧡 Organizing teams has never been so easy!
