Delegyn Shift Delegyn Shift
For staff

Your schedule, on your phone

This page is for the people who work the shifts. If your agency uses Delegyn Shift, here is exactly what you get, what you can do with it, and what nobody else can see about you.

What you can do

Four things, and no menu to learn.

There is no training for this. You sign in, and the first thing on the screen is what you are working next.

See what you're working

Your own shifts, with the date, the times, the home or program and the position. Nothing to scroll past — no colleagues' rosters, no other locations, no filters to set first.

You only ever see schedules your agency has published. A scheduler's draft is a working copy that may still change, and planning your week around one that then changes is worse than not knowing yet.

Pick up an open shift

Shifts that need covering, that you are actually qualified and available for, in one list. You ask for the ones you want instead of finding out about them in a group text you have muted.

Optional — your agency chooses whether to open this up. If it is on, a scheduler still decides who gets the shift.

Hand a shift to a colleague

Something comes up on Thursday. You offer the shift, and a colleague who could work it can take it — without either of you working out who to phone.

Optional, and your agency picks how it works: either a supervisor approves each hand-over, or a qualified colleague can simply take it. Offers close a set time before the shift starts — three hours by default — because a shift nobody has claimed is still yours.

See your own reliability score

If your agency uses reliability scoring, you can see your own rating and the events behind it — the dates, which shifts, and what each one cost you.

Optional twice over: an agency chooses whether to use scoring at all, and separately whether staff see their own. Plenty keep it at management level.

Why you can always see the reasons behind your own score. A number that decides whether you get a bonus has to be something you can argue with, and you cannot argue with a figure whose inputs you are not allowed to see. So if your agency shows you your score, you get the events that produced it — not just the total.

What you will never see is a supervisor's written note about an incident, or who wrote it. That is a management record and it stays one.

Your privacy

Your co-workers can't see your hours. You can't see theirs.

When you look at a shift, you are told how many people are on with you. Never who. Not hidden behind a setting — the information is not sent to your phone at all.

Most scheduling software shows the whole roster to everybody on it. That sounds harmless until it is your second job, your reduced hours, the week you were taken off overnights, or the fact that you picked up five extra shifts this month. In a small staff team that is not neutral information.

Nobody you work with can see your hours, your availability, your time off or your attendance record. Your supervisors can, because that is their job. The people standing next to you cannot.

Getting in

There is no app to download.

Your agency sends you a sign-in link — usually by text or in person. You set a password once, and that is the setup finished. The link works once and expires, so if it has been sitting in your messages for a couple of weeks, ask for a new one rather than assuming it is broken.

After that it opens in your phone's browser, and you can put it on your home screen so it opens full screen like any other app:

  • iPhone: tap the share button, then "Add to Home Screen", then "Add". Three taps.
  • Android: tap the install prompt when it appears. One tap.

Nothing to approve on a managed device, no app store account, and no storage taken up. If you would rather just bookmark it, that works exactly the same.

It needs a connection — this is a live schedule, not a copy, so it always shows what is actually true rather than what was true when you last had signal.

Being straight with you

Things it doesn't do, that you might expect it to.

Better to read this here than to go looking for a button that is not there:

  • You can't request time off in the app. Ask your supervisor the way you do now, and they record it. Once it is in, the system refuses to schedule you across it.
  • It doesn't clock you in or out, and it is not connected to payroll. It is the schedule, not the timeclock.
  • It doesn't text you when a shift opens up. That is planned and not built. Today you check the app.
  • You can't see the schedule before it's published, and you can't see other people's shifts. Both are deliberate.
  • You can't swap into a shift you're not qualified for, or one that collides with something you are already working.

The first one is the one people notice. It is on the list of things to build, and until it is built this page will say so.

Already work somewhere that uses it?

Sign in with the email your agency has for you. Forgotten your password? Ask a supervisor or whoever set up your account to send you a new link — we cannot email you one yet, and telling you to wait for an email that never arrives would be worse than saying so.

Fourteen days, your real schedule, no card. The worst case is you print one clean schedule and walk away.
