Started work but no idea when I actually have work?

I started work this week at a new location that is still being set up so was advised I wouldn't be working my full hours yet. The job is 3 days a week. My start date was on Monday and I was in a few hours on Monday and a few hours on Thursday and that was all.

It's Friday and I have no idea what days/hours I need to be in next week. I booked my COVID vaccine and I'm worried it's going to clash with a day they are suddenly going to tell me I need to be in. Even besides the vaccine, I feel like I'm on edge thinking they are going to suddenly tell me I need to go in. It's a job 3 days a week and I feel like I am having to be cautious 7 days a week in case I need to be in.

I have no idea who my manager is or who my go-to contact is. I can't access my work email yet as I need to go in to do that and I don't think you're allowed to just show up due to COVID restrictions on capacity. I started as a cohort with around 15 others so I'm not the only one. Just feeling a bit overwhelmed really.

Does anyone have any advice? Previous roles have always been very streamlined and well organised but I think because this is a new location there are a few hiccups.

I’d send an email to whoever you have an email for and just tell them you’re chasing up your schedule next week because your COVID test is booked for x date/time.
