## Overview

Who is currently available to respond to incidents and outages in your company? To answer that question, you need to check a calendar or your on-call schedule. When incidents occur, stress, panic, or both can be present, so having the on-call schedule in view can help smooth the situation.

First things first, plan your on-call schedule for the primary and backup rotations, and update the overrides whenever someone will be unreachable for any reason. Then, double-check that the communications channels (mobile devices for voice calls and SMS, email accounts, etc.) are correct and working. And that the notifications will reach to all the involved people: Responders and observers.

> 📝 Read [Building an effective on-call schedule](https://www.atlassian.com/incident-management/on-call/on-call-schedules) to learn more about how to avoid the common mistakes of on-call scheduling, like not prioritizing work-life balance, or not leaving room for emergencies.

This gadget displays the final schedule of the on-call schedule, which takes into account the rotations and overrides defined for that schedule.
