Temper

There could be multiple reasons why you would not be able to respond to a shift. We’ve made a list of the reasons why and what this means:

You’ve completed your first shift and do not yet possess a<a href="http://help.temper.works/en/articles/1143559-how-can-i-request-my-vat-id"> VAT-ID</a>. You will have to register as a freelancer to continue on the platform.

You’re waiting for the activation of your VAT-ID. You’ll be able to work a total of 3 times up until your VAT-ID has been activated, after which you will be able to continue on the platform.<a href="http://help.temper.works/en/articles/1130563-when-will-my-vat-id-be-activated"> Find more information about this process.</a>

You are yet to become a FreeFlexer and the client has chosen to only let FreeFlexers respond to their shifts. You will not be able to work here, but only<a href="http://help.temper.works/en/articles/1143522-can-i-try-temper-without-being-a-freeflexer"> during the try-out of the platform</a>.

The client excluded you from working at his/her place. After the last checkout, the client has opted to not choose to work together anymore in the future. When you try to respond to a shift, the platform will show the following message: ‘You can’t respond to shifts here anymore’.

You’ve worked the maximum amount of<a href="http://help.temper.works/en/articles/2011692-why-can-i-work-only-660-hours-a-year-for-a-client"> 660</a> hours at the same client and reached the limit.

‘You can't apply for this substitution shift’. You’ve got other<a href="http://help.temper.works/en/articles/3429705-how-does-the-small-businesses-scheme-kor-work-in-2020"> KOR</a> settings than the person you try to substitute.

You did not complete your checkout within 7 days. If you’re too late with doing your checkout, you can’t apply for new shifts until you’ve completed your outstanding checkout.
