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.
Shift workers for your venueShops and supermarkets

Questions from shop owners
Can I ask for a cashier for just one shift?
Yes. Every shift stands on its own: you write the role, the time, the pay and the number of workers, choose from the applicants, and there is no commitment afterwards.
Can I ask for stocktake assistants for stocktake day only?
Yes. You post a stocktake shift with the day, the time, the pay and the number of workers you need, and accept applicants until the number is filled.
Should I ask for a cashier or a sales associate?
If the queue at the till is the problem, ask for a retail cashier. If customers need someone to help them choose, ask for a sales associate.
Can I ask for several days in the season?
Yes. You post each day as its own shift, with its own time and number, so you ask for exactly what each day needs.
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 sales associate or cashier for the shop.
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.
