Shift Reminders

Updated

Shift reminders help keep your employees up to date-and on time! With this setting enabled, scheduled employees will receive a notification reminding them of their shift details, 'X' hours before their shift begins.

⚠️ Access to this feature may require an upgrade from your current plan.

⚠️ Employees must enable push notifications on their mobile device in order to receive these notifications.
❗️ This feature is only available to accounts in the following countries:

  • Bermuda
  • Canada
  • Singapore
  • United States of America (USA)
  • United Kingdom (UK)

⚠️ Only Admins can manage the Shift Reminders settings as these will apply to all Locations within the account.

1. Go to Settings > Company Settings > Schedules.

2. Check the box for 'Shift Reminders.'

3. Below, enter the number of hours beforehand you want reminders to be sent to your staff.

That's it!

Going forward, as long as employees have push notifications enabled for 7shifts on their mobile device, they will receive a notification reminding them of their scheduled shifts.

⚠️ Please also ensure the Time Zone is correctly set up for each Location's settings. This is found under Settings > Locations / Departments / Roles > Locations > the Location name > General.
