What it is: a request for two employees to trade (or give away) a shift, signed by both and approved by a manager.
Check hours before approving
A swap moves hours between workweeks and can push someone over 40, which creates overtime even if the other person ends up under. Before signing, check both people's week in the schedule maker and update the posted work schedule.
Approving extra hours instead? The overtime request form records it.
