## General contact information

Here you can add the staff/providers contact information, this information is only visible within your business and does not display in the online booking page besides the staff name (if staff selection is enabled in the online booking options)

## Working Slots

Set the days and hours the staff/provider will be working, to copy the Monday Hours press the ![](/files/82TzrEZyWw8j5Ik8R7bt)  button, to copy the Business Location hours press the ![](/files/PdGIF71gG5a2t1EwBmgA) button

It is important to note that Staff hours and availability will be within the business location hours so you may need to adjust both the working hours along with the business hours found in the Settings > Locations > select your location > Location Hours tab
