# Bailout Settings

> How to adjust your Bailout settings through Roosted.

In this article, we will explain how to adjust your Bailout settings. A bailout is a worker removing a shift from their schedule. See **[Bailouts](https://support.roostedhr.com/en/articles/9497156-bailouts)** for more information.

You can customize various settings for bailouts, including specific time frames for when workers can bail out and custom warning messages. To access these settings, go to **Configuration** in the admin bar, then **Settings - Worker Interaction**. Click to expand the options, and you’ll find **Bailouts** at the top.

## Active

**If toggled on:** workers can bail out of shifts within a specified time frame based on your settings.

**If toggled off:** workers will be blocked from bailing out and prompted to contact HR instead. In this case, admins will need to manually bail out workers from shifts.

## Customize When a Worker Can Bailout

**If toggled on:** you can further customize the settings:

* Admins can receive an email if a worker bails out within a certain number of days before the event.

* You can lock bailouts within a specified number of days before an event.

**If toggled off:** the two sliders will be greyed out.

The default settings will then apply: **admins will not receive emails, and bailouts will be locked one day before the event.**

## If Bailouts are Forbidden, Automatically Append Company Email to Message to Worker

**If toggled on:** workers will receive a message to contact HR.

## Email Admins If a Worker Bails Out in Less Than This Amount of Days

Customize the number of days before an event so that if a worker bails out admins will receive an email. If set to 7 days, admins will receive an email if a worker bails out within 7 days of the event.

You can also lock bailouts within a specific number of days before the event - if set to 3 days, workers will be unable to bail out themselves starting 3 days before the event. They will be instructed to contact HR for assistance.
