2.2. Reporting to Work After a Hiatus and System Announcements
There may be insufficient work available. You can find additional information regarding Out of Work messages by checking in Tab 1 of the Resource Library located on your MIRA dashboard.
If you have been told not to report due to "out of work" messages or a notice that your group has been put on hold, please do not log in to score. This time is not authorized.
Check your project status from the list of projects below. If you’re project status indicates that you should check for work, do so only once at the beginning of your shift. Before beginning your next shift, check your assignment status below. Do not log in more than once a day to check work availability. If no responses are available after ten minutes, logout and check back the next day.
This page will confirm the day you are to report back, by project and assignment. We appreciate your flexibility!
