Shift workers
For short-term pressure: you write the role, the time, the pay and the number of workers, accept applicants until the number is filled, and on the day you see who has arrived.

Questions about events and hospitality
Can I ask for a team for a one-day event?
Yes. You set the number when you post, accept applicants until it is filled, and there is no commitment after the event.
Can I split the event into more than one shift?
Yes. You can post each stage as its own shift, with its own role, time and number: setup, welcome and teardown.
Should the supervisor be one of my staff, or a shift worker?
Either. “Event supervisor” is a role you can post as a shift, or it can be someone from your own team. What matters is that the workers have one person to report to.
Who sets the pay?
You do. The pay is written on the shift before anyone applies, so whoever applies knows it from the start.
What if the worker doesn’t show up?
The Saiiy team calls you and works out a solution with you. If a worker cancels before the shift, we look for a replacement.
How do I know the worker will come and do the job well?
No worker can apply until our team has reviewed their account. Before you accept, you see their ratings from the venues they have worked with. On the day, you see who has arrived.
I need a permanent receptionist for the hotel.
The Saiiy team no longer hires full-time or part-time staff for venues. What is available now is shift workers, and if the need comes back every week, you post it as shifts every week.
What happens after I send a message?
The Saiiy team replies and asks about anything missing, helps you post your first shift, and follows up with you.
Where do you work?
In Cairo. Ask the Saiiy team about what your venue needs and current availability in Cairo.
