👉 Choosing Your Shifts
At MyWorkChoice, you have the freedom to pick & choose your shifts. But remember, this choice comes with responsibility. Your decisions impact your Reliability Rating, which reflects your commitment and reliability based on the shifts you schedule and successfully work. The higher your rating, the more shift choices you get.
When choosing your shifts, remember to:
Commit to Your Shifts: Only schedule shifts you can work.
Drop Shifts ASAP if Needed: If you can’t make it, drop the shift in the app as soon as possible. (Note: Dropping shifts will impact your rating)
Following these guidelines ensures a high Reliability Rating and more shift choices. Failing to follow them not only impacts your rating and shift opportunities but may also lead to shift restrictions.
📖 For more details, check out the Reliability Rating and Shift Restriction Guidelines & Violations articles.
When Shifts are Posted in the App
Shift schedules for Georgia Pacific are posted in the MyWorkChoice app every Saturday at 1:00 p.m. EST.
*Please note your Reliability Rating will determine your ability to pick up shifts as soon as they are posted in the app.*
Once shifts are posted in the app we send a push notification to all our workers. (See below for an example).
Pro tip: Make sure to turn on your push notifications so that you're notified when shifts post in the app so that you can pick up the shifts you want before they fill up.
How to Schedule Your Next Shifts
Once you've completed training, you'll be able to view and select upcoming shifts in the app within 12 hours. If you're not seeing any shifts please contact your Community Leader, Bobbie Wallace.
Login to the MyWorkChoice app and select the green money sign "My Shifts" and go to available.
*Please note this is an example screen of what available shifts look like.*
👉 How to Clock-In
*Please note: Clocking in before every shift is mandatory - failure to do so will lead to corrective action that may result in termination.
First login to the MyWorkChoice app and find your "timeclock pin" which will be on the home screen under your name and Reliability Rating in a blue box. (Reference below).
Go to a MyWorkChoice kiosk tablet in the facility and enter your "timeclock pin" and select "login."
Next, select the green button that says "clock in" on the right side of the screen.
Once you select "clock in" the next screen will include shift details. Select the green button "start shift" and that will officially clock you in.
You'll be able to confirm you're clocked in by seeing the timer start and a red button on the top right of the screen that says "end shift."
Once you've successfully clocked in, select the "sign out" button located on the bottom left of the screen below your employee info and name.
Clocking out after your shift is a similar process to clocking in. Please review these step-by-step instructions on how to clock out when your shift ends.
