How it works
While using 7shifts, we care about your team having the communication tools they need to be collaborative and efficient.
To ensure that employees continue to have a good experience within the messaging feature, they are empowered to report any abusive comments they may have received in a direct message for custom group chat. When Employees use this option, their Manager or Admin will be notified and provided a log of the messages involved to review. Employees can also provide additional comments and context when filing the report.
In either case, the user who sent the inappropriate message will not be aware that a report has been made.
- Private chats with yourself and another individual
- Private group/custom chats amongst yourself and 2 or more individuals
Prepopulated group chats for Locations, Departments, and Roles will not see this report function as Admins will already have access to view any messages within these chats.
