Answered by GPT-4o mini
If the individual scheduled to begin working at 6 PM does not show up, here are steps you could take:

1. **Check the Schedule**: Confirm the schedule to ensure that the person was indeed supposed to be there at that time.

2. **Notify a Supervisor or Manager**: If you're working in a structured environment, let your supervisor or manager know that the scheduled employee has not arrived.

3. **Attempt to Contact the Employee**: If you feel comfortable doing so, you might try reaching out to the individual to see if they are on their way or experiencing an issue (like an emergency or transportation problem).

4. **Document the Situation**: Keep a record of the incident, including the time the employee was supposed to arrive and any communication attempts.

5. **Prepare to Cover the Shift**: Depending on the policies of your workplace, you may need to stay and cover the shift until the situation is resolved, or you may be able to leave once your shift officially ends. Make sure you clarify this with your supervisor.

6. **Follow Up**: After your shift or once the situation is under control, follow up with your supervisor regarding the missed shift to see if there are further actions or policies that need to be addressed.

It is essential to remain professional and follow the protocols established by your workplace in such situations.
