How to Fill Shifts When Volunteers Only Have an Hour
Offer a short job beside longer shifts in Proximatic. Someone can help put out signs, and you can still see whether anyone has taken the all-morning desk.
Someone can help for an hour before work, while another volunteer can stay all morning. Proximatic can put both offers to work without leaving you to piece the roster together by hand.
Offer short jobs people can finish: preparing supply kits before the doors open, putting out signs or packing equipment afterward. Put them on your Proximatic event with their own times and places, alongside the longer desk shifts. People can take a short job directly without promising time they don't have.
If the offers come from your existing crew, save their availability and use Auto-Schedule to match them to the shifts. A person free from 9–10 can be assigned to kit preparation during that hour while someone available longer covers the welcome desk. You get the work distributed on a roster rather than a collection of “I can pop in” replies to sort by hand.
The remaining openings tell you what to recruit for next. Filling the kit-preparation crew is a real gain; an empty desk shift still needs someone for its full hours. You can welcome short contributions and keep the longer commitments visible at the same time.
Create your event and shifts and put that spare hour to work.
