What is Call-Off?

When an employee notifies their employer that they cannot work a scheduled shift, typically due to illness, emergency, or personal reasons.

Understanding Call-Off

Call-offs create immediate staffing gaps that must be filled to maintain operations. Effective call-off management includes logging the absence, finding replacement coverage, and tracking patterns over time. Frequent call-offs from specific employees may indicate underlying issues that need to be addressed.
