Kelly Days are built in days off in a shift cycle that keep a firefighter from working too many days and violating FLSA rules. Hero Schedule allows you to set the 'work period' (typically 14-day, 19-day, 28-day). Then you select which day of the period to give each firefighter as their Kelly Day.

Hero Schedule is built to easily create an Open Shift opportunity.
