Staff availability

Set working hours for every class instructor and PT. When a trainer calls in sick, reassign their sessions to a cover instructor in Xircuit — members see the updated name and are notified automatically, without any front-desk chaos.

Clients only see real open slots — never ones your team cannot fill.

  • Configure each instructor's weekly rota so only their live slots appear to members.
  • Assign a cover instructor to a sick day in one step — no class cancellations needed.
  • Block instructor time for CPD, staff meetings and training without creating visible gaps in the schedule.

Xircuit's staff availability module lets you set working hours, recurring schedules and one-off exceptions for every team member. The booking system draws directly from live availability — so clients are only ever offered slots that someone on your team can actually take.

Real-time availability

Staff schedules feed live into the booking engine — no lag, no manual updates between a rota change and client-facing slots.

Exception handling

Block individual days, holidays or training sessions as one-off exceptions without rebuilding the whole schedule.

Per-staff working hours

Set different hours for each team member — part-timers, job-sharers and contractors all managed correctly from the start.

Cover and substitution

Reassign services to a cover colleague instantly when someone calls in sick — affected clients can be notified automatically.

Bank-holiday and closure cascade

Apply a closure across all staff with one action — public holidays, refurbishments and emergency closures handled in seconds.

Staff availability

Gyms that model instructor availability in Xircuit typically reduce class cancellations due to last-minute absences significantly — often by around 80 % — because cover can be arranged before members are affected.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set different hours for different days of the week?

Yes. Each staff member has a day-by-day schedule so you can configure different start and end times for every day of the working week.

What happens to bookings when a staff member goes on holiday?

Add a holiday block to their schedule and Xircuit hides their slots automatically for that period. Existing bookings in that window are flagged so you can reassign or contact clients proactively.

Can I share a role across multiple staff members?

Yes. Assign a service to multiple staff and clients will be offered any slot where at least one of them is available — the system handles the distribution automatically.
