You can only release your shift at least 6 hours before the start of the shift.
Shifts which are within 6 hours away from the shift start time cannot be released.
Starting your shift
- A pop-up notification reminds driver-partners of upcoming shift 30 mins before commencement
Ensure that all required service types are toggled on

- If any other service types other that the required are toggled on, you will be able to get jobs of that service type.
Requirements and Criteria
To complete a shift, a driver-partner must maintain the following:
- Stay online on the Grab-driver app for a minimum of 70% of the entire shift duration
- Toggle on all required service types during the shift period
- Have the following Service Types toggled on:
Important Notes:
- Shift that do not meet the above criteria will be marked as “Missed Shift”.
- MyDestination must be toggled OFF (online hours during which MyDestination is toggled on will not be counted towards your total online hours).
- Auto-accept Always On (AAAO) will not work with shifts and jobs will have to be accepted manually.
- If any of the required service types are not toggled on, the online hours during that period will not be counted.
- Trip count is based on broadcast time during the shift time slot.
- If any other service types other that the required are toggled on, you will be able to get jobs of that service type.
- If you are unable to make it for your shift, do remember to release your booking. A no-show takes away the slot from another Driver-Partner.
- Driver-Partners will now be able to reserve a maximum of 30 shift slots at any point in time.
- Shifts needs to be released at least 6 Hours before the Shift start time. Shifts not released before this 6H window and are not completed, will be counted as a missed shift.
Missed Shift
Driver-Partners will be informed if they have missed a shift. If a driver-partner accumulates 5 missed shifts over a one week period, he may be suspended from booking shifts for the next 7 days.
