[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width="2/3"][vc_column_text]With the Self-Schedule tool, you can take the job of scheduling completely out of your event management team's hands, and place the responsibility right with your worker! The Self-Schedule tool has many bells and whistles that will allow your management team to control the scheduling process, while workers are able to select work times and preferred departments. Your event labor coordinator can decide what shifts or departments are shown in the Self-Schedule tool, and which workers are able to Self-Schedule through their event home page, based on WPL or Category. This tool can be used to schedule your entire workforce, or to schedule different Categories of workers based on seniority or other factors. With the robust management settings, your ability to control the process is not lost, but your event workers will feel empowered to select their own work times, keeping emails and one-to-one communications to a minimum![/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/3"][button title="SCHEDULE A DEMO" color="orange" align="aligncenter" url="/contact/?subj=Schedule" width="full" el_class="big-text"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][divider_line][/vc_column][/vc_row]
