A pay-as-you-go mobile phone, loaded with all the staff contact numbers, is a rapid and fairly effective way of seeing who could cover a shift if you have a problem. A group text may save hours on the phone... (we've all been there) – it's not a guarantee, but starts the process.
If you have some creative tips to share, please send them to us by email, or discuss/publicise them on the ECA's Discussion Zone page. It would be great to put one in each newsletter.
