Leave coverage planning
Build the coverage plan before the schedule breaks.
Map essential work, measure capacity, choose a coverage model, and plan both the start and end of temporary support.
01
Map essential work
Separate what must continue from what can pause, move or be reassigned.
02
Measure capacity
Check staffing, overtime, cross-training and supervisor workload.
03
Choose a model
Use internal coverage, temporary staffing or a blended approach.
The leave is approved. Now cover the work.
Find temporary coverage.
Tell the local Express team the role, timeline and work that must continue. An employer specialist can discuss appropriate staffing options.
