CVS mySchedule ESS

The CVS mySchedule ESS app is a valuable tool tailored for CVS Pharmacy Retail store colleagues, streamlining access and management of work schedules. Use of ESS is voluntary and provided for colleague convenience only. Colleagues can still view and request changes to their schedules in stores during working hours. ESS is for use by Pharmacy Technicians and Front Store Crew only. Exempt colleagues (including Store Managers, Pharmacists, and Pharmacy Managers) DO NOT have access to the application. Contact your immediate supervisor for more application information. ESS use is not available in California.

Features:

Shift viewing: With this app, CVS Pharmacy Retail store colleagues can easily view their shifts for any schedule that has been published. This ensures that they have access to their work schedule anytime and anywhere.

Request days off/time off: The app allows colleagues to conveniently request days off or time off directly from their mobile device. No more need to fill out paperwork or speak to a manager in person.

Availability changes: Colleagues can easily view and request changes to their availability through the app. Whether they need to adjust their working hours or update their availability, it can all be done with just a few taps.

Shift advertising and swapping: Want to pick up extra shifts or swap shifts with a co-worker? The app allows colleagues to advertise their shifts to be picked up by other colleagues or to easily swap shifts with someone else. It's a great way to find additional work opportunities or to manage your schedule better.

Convenient and voluntary: The use of the CVS Employee Self Service app is entirely voluntary, providing colleagues with the flexibility to choose whether or not to use it. It is designed to enhance convenience and make scheduling processes smoother for retail store colleagues.

Limited access and support: The app is specifically designed for Pharmacy Technicians and Front Store Crew, ensuring that it caters to the needs of these specific roles. Colleagues who are exempt, such as Store Managers, Pharmacists, and Pharmacy Managers, do not have access to the app. For any additional information or support, colleagues can reach out to their immediate supervisor.

Tips for Users:

Stay Organized: Make it a habit to regularly check your schedule on the app and plan your time accordingly. This will help you stay on top of your shifts and avoid any last-minute surprises.

Request Time Off Early: If you know well in advance that you will need time off, submit your request as early as possible. This increases the chances of getting your requested time off approved and allows for smoother coordination within the store.

Utilize Shift Management Features: Take advantage of the various shift management features available on the app. Advertise your shifts if you need someone to cover for you, propose a shift swap with a colleague if you have conflicting plans, or request extra work if you're looking for additional hours.
