Scheduling forms are for active recreation workers only. If you are not an active recreation worker and are interested in applying for jobs in recreation please see how to apply.
In Fall 2021, Recreation Workers moved from having two scheduling submission periods per year, to having four scheduling submission periods per year. This change better reflects seniority levels when scheduling decisions are being made and gives Recreation Workers more flexibility when submitting schedules.
Once registered for Self Service/Employee Remote Access (SS/ERA), you can submit your Request for Work form(s) using Kronos Workforce Central (Kronos WFC). The system enables you to also view the status of your requests, update your availability, receive shift offers and choose if you want to be contacted by email, phone or text.
To keep up to date on important changes and known issues please see Request For Work updates and known issues.
