Overview

Shift and schedule SUIDs help job seekers find jobs that match their availability. These SUIDs describe weekly schedules, shift lengths, shift times, supplemental schedules such as overtime or on-call work, and trucking home-time arrangements.

Weekly schedules: Day distribution, such as Monday to Friday, weekends, or rotating schedules
Shift lengths: Shift duration, such as 4-hour, 8-hour, or 12-hour shifts
Shift times: Time of day, such as morning, day, evening, or night
Supplemental schedules: Additional schedule details, such as on-call work, overtime, or holidays
Trucking home time: How often drivers return home

These attributes are available in many countries. Always check the Applies in column to confirm that the attribute is supported in your target market.

How to find the right SUID

Identify the shift category: Choose weekly schedule, shift length, shift time, supplemental schedule, or trucking home time.
Check country availability: Verify that the attribute is available in your target country. See the Applies in column.
Consider combinations: A job can use multiple shift attributes, such as "8 hour shift" + "Day shift" + "Monday to Friday".
Use the SUID: Add the 5-character SUID to the attributes array.

Best practices

Combine related attributes: Many jobs benefit from multiple shift attributes, such as 5GUGE (8 hour shift) + PMS5Q (Day shift) + SAP7A (Monday to Friday).
Match the real schedule: Use shift attributes that reflect the actual work schedule so job seekers know what to expect.
Verify country availability: Check the Applies in column before using an attribute in your target market.
Use the most specific attribute: For example, use SAP7A (Monday to Friday) instead of only F4UMB (Weekdays).
Use flexibility attributes when appropriate: For flexible schedules, use attributes such as HY5VT (Flextime) or 6ZG3Z (Choose your own hours).
Highlight work-life balance when relevant: Use attributes such as FM8WH (No weekends), H7VK5 (No nights), or GN2KW (No overtime).
Be clear about schedule requirements: If weekend or evening work is required, use attributes such as 7SRRR (Weekend availability) or EMGHB (Evenings as needed).
