Communication is a fundamental aspect between employees and the company. Implementing a system of alerts and notifications allows us to convey the information whenever and however we want. Especially in today’s times.
Though various tools or strategies exist, at Sesame we bet on the convenience of having everything within reach. Or in other words: in your smartphone. Today we’re going to tell you a little more about the benefits of alerts and notifications. Take note!
Advantages of the alert and notification system
Alerts and notifications make it possible for no employee to miss anything. Moreover, they are a very simple tool for managing internal communication. They are just a single click away!
Through the web or from the company’s own app, employees can receive and send notifications whenever they need them. We’re talking about forgetting to sign in or out, shift changes, or alerts to other company colleagues.
But without a doubt, the great advantage of alerts and notifications is linked to time control. Thanks to these novel systems, notifications allow us to compute our working times most efficiently.
No more oversights or the usual errors when signing in or out are over. With this alert and notification system, everyone will be up to date. You’ll save on problems and, above all, time.
In short, we’re talking about a true revolution in the field of a company’s human resources. But also within the software that we can implement in a company.
Now that you know the general lines, you may be wondering what the advantages of Sesame are. Don’t worry because we’re going to tell you in detail about its alert and notification system.
Characteristics of Sesame’s alerts and notifications
- Schedules on your smartphone
Workers will finally have the information they need at their fingertips: shifts, schedules, possibility of requesting absences, etc.
Thanks to this human resources software, having control of our workday is easier than ever.
- Notifications when clocking in and out
You can mark the end of the workday in the Sesame configuration. This way, employees who haven’t clocked out will be notified with an automatic message.
- Notice at the start of the workday
You can program an alert to remind yours of the start of the workday. A tool as easy to manage as this one can be vital in shift work, where there can be confusion.
Notifications and alerts even let us remind employees of the place they have to go. This is very useful for scheduling meetings outside the office or in particular rooms.
- Anticipation of overtime
With a brief configuration you can notify employees at the end of their workday. This way we can anticipate the accumulation of involuntary overtime.
This will be very useful for preventing changes in the calendar due to time mismanagement. And it will translate, in the long run, into better management of our employees’ days off.
- Push notifications
You can send your team any information you want. Of course, make sure they receive it by activating the notifications push in the official Sesame app.
This way, no one will miss anything because the alerts will arrive directly on their mobile screen.
- Communication at a single click
Thanks to the notification and alert system, communicating is easier than ever. Send them any kind of information and it will automatically arrive at their smartphone.
Making this process so horizontal and close guarantees efficient and immediate reception. And that’s exactly what we’re looking for!
Adaptation to all roles
You heard it right. One of the biggest advantages of Sesame is its adaptation to each role. This way, a manager, a supervisor or an employee will have a different view of the software. But why this change? Simple!
As you can imagine, each role requires different competencies. In the case of a manager, he/she will have to manage team incidents and approve schedule changes from anywhere. All thanks to the Sesame app.
On the other hand, an employee could request a leave through the vacation and absences section. So, even if they both work on the same team, they’ll have different tools and capabilities.
The same would happen with other positions within the company: the possibilities are as many as there are roles or categories in a company.
Notifications with messages
The Sesame app also allows for accompanying notifications and alerts with different messages. We’re talking about notes where you can provide more information to other colleagues or superiors.
Thanks to these we will be able to explain the reasons behind an absence or justify a delay.
This way, we can finally eliminate those endless email threads. And that’s not all, because it can also save you unnecessary meetings with a single click on your phone.
Human resources management has never been so simple!
