3. FAQ

I only see the option "Call supervisor to cancel" instead of "Cancel shift"

If you see the option "Call supervisor to cancel" instead of "Cancel shift", it means the shift is scheduled to start in less than 24 hours or your employer doesn't allow employees to cancel their shifts.

Either way, please click on the button "Call supervisor to cancel" to see your supervisors' contact details and call them:

Is there a penalty for cancelling a shift?

Whether there's a penalty for cancelling a shift depends on your employer's policies. To find out more, please contact your employer directly.


If you are experiencing any problems when trying to cancel a shift, you should first contact your employer directly, as PARiM customer support does not directly manage any employees. You can find your employer's contact details by going to "More" > "Contacts" in your PARiM mobile app. If there is a technical problem or a bug, your employer should contact us directly.
