Clock Messages

Enhancing Workforce Interaction with Personalised Clock-In/Out Messages for Seamless Employee Engagement.

In the hospitality industry, effective communication with employees is crucial for maintaining smooth operations and high morale. Our latest feature allows you to create customisable clock messages that appear when an employee clocks in or out on the mobile app or on the iPad. This innovative tool not only personalises the clock-in/out experience but also provides an efficient way to convey important information, reminders, and motivational messages. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps to configure these messages, ensuring your team stays informed and engaged with minimal effort.
