Dispatch Workers for Snow Events

When snow is on the way, on-call workers need to know about it as soon as possible so they can have time to plan accordingly, adjust their schedules, and communicate their availability back to you.

How you might currently be doing this

  1. Maintaining a spreadsheet of who can work when
  2. Calling or texting everyone individually to confirm availability
  3. Updating spreadsheet one by one as replies come in
  4. Calling or texting everyone individually with updates on when and where they are needed

Why Use Team Engine Instead

Speed: texting everyone at once is easier than texting or calling one-by-one

Reliability: 95% of text messages are read and responded to within 3 minutes after being received.

Visibility: Text conversations with employees are stored in a shared inbox where everyone can access information about availability and dispatched locations.

How you can use Team Engine to do this

  1. Sync your employee directory with your HRIS or payroll platform, OR upload an up-to-date CSV with all employees.
  2. Organize your employees by group e.g. by shift, location or function.
  3. Compose one message to confirm availability. (See sample text provided in the copy-and-paste box.)
  4. Send to the appropriate employee group(s) all at once.

Confirm Availability for Snow Event
