If you want to request time off on a specific date, you can send a request to your coordinator using WhenToHelp. You can request a full day (or days) off or part of a day off (and even repeat it over a number of weeks). After your request has been reviewed by your coordinator, you will notified whether your request was approved or denied. If the request is approved, you will not have to help for any shift that overlaps during that time.
In the top menu, choose Time Off to go to the Time Off Section.
Choose the day you want Time Off from the calendar on the right.
Full Day Off - Or Days in a Row
If you want to ask for one or more whole days off, be sure the radio button next to Full Day(s) is on. If you want to ask for a number of days off in a row, enter the number of days off.

Click the Request Time Off button.
You will notice the Time Off Request will be showing in the list at the bottom of the page.

Part of a Day Off - Can Repeat Weekly
