Definition
A no-show is a worker who confirmed a shift and then did not arrive and did not give notice. It is the single most expensive problem in hourly staffing because the business is left short with no warning. At Crew Staffing Pros, a worker who has not checked in within 30 minutes of the scheduled start, and has not told dispatch they are running late, counts as a no-show. We send a replacement at no extra charge, and a no-show is never billed.
