WhenToWork provides a method for Managers to send out an urgent text message alert to
Employees' & Managers' cell phones or email.
Each Employee
and Manager must sign in and set which email or text message address will
receive these alerts (or the Manager can set this up for
Employees).
To send an urgent text alert:
- Hover over Messaging in the top menu and choose
Send Urgent
Text Alert.
- The Urgent Alert page will show the number of users who are signed
up to receive these alerts next to each group
- Type the alert text up to 150 characters and be sure to include your
name in the message so they know who it is from
- Choose who to send the Alert to
- Check the box to send a copy to your email or text address which
also will include a list of recipients
- Click the Send button and the alert is sent to all users who have
chosen to receive them.
If you do not see the checkbox to send a copy to yourself be sure that you have set up your email
and/or text address notifications to include Urgent Text Alerts on your
Settings>My Notifications page.
