If there are employees who wish to apply for shift schedule changes, you can submit shift schedule changes to Talenta. This application can be made if the employee does not have access to the ESS Talenta Account. However, if the employee has access to the ESS Talenta Account, the employee can independently apply for a shift schedule change.
