What happens if I need to cancel a shift?

Asked 2 years ago
When using the ShiftGig platform, it is important to understand the cancellation policy associated with shifts. If a user needs to cancel a shift they have accepted, they should do so as soon as possible. Typically, ShiftGig has specific guidelines for cancelling a shift, which can vary based on the type of work and the hiring entity involved. Generally, late cancellations may result in penalties or a negative impact on the user's standing within the app. This could include restrictions on future shifts or reduced access to preferred opportunities. Most importantly, the platform encourages open communication with the hiring entity to address any potential issues resulting from a cancellation. To mitigate inconveniences and maintain a good reputation in the ShiftGig community, users are advised to familiarize themselves with the cancellation policies outlined in the app or on the website. It is always beneficial to plan ahead and only accept shifts that one is confident they can fulfill. For the most accurate and detailed information, please refer to the terms available on the ShiftGig website.
