COVID DISRUPTIONS
Important Information:
What happens if my Shootzu job is impacted by COVID-19 disruptions?
In these days of un-certainty and snap lockdowns and restrictions by government officials – both CREW and BUSINESSES agree that there is potential for postponements and cancellations on jobs due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control relating to COVID-19.
Should your job via Shootzu be impacted by COVID related lockdowns or restrictions, the following actions can be taken:
1. Postpone the date: Simply let Shootzu Support & your Crew know via email that the job is impacted and will be postponed to a future date. We can move this in the booking calendar which will reflect in both the CREW and BUSINESS accounts. In the case that your crew member is not available on the rescheduled date, a refund of the crew payment will be issued and you can re-post your job on Shootzu to find crew for the new date.
2. Cancellation: Should a job be completely cancelled due to a COVID related disruption, email Shootzu Support & your Crew to explain the situation. A refund of the Crew Payment (minus admin / transaction fees) will be processed to the hiring business.
Always ensure that you communicate with your hired crew at all times, and you can keep us in the loop by CC’ing us regarding the potential disruption.
