Notifications and reminders are key tools for keeping employees informed in a simple and timely manner. At Happyforce, we also promote and encourage responsible and respectful use of these tools, avoiding overloading employees with notifications.
Daily participation notification
These notifications encourage employees to record their mood. You can select the days of the week and the time they will receive it. However, keep in mind that employees have the final say and can choose a different configuration from their own devices the first time they use Happyforce.
☝️ Remember to Respect Working Hours
Always ensure that notifications are sent only during agreed working hours, avoiding interruptions outside of employees' shifts. This promotes a healthy work-life balance and prevents employees from rejecting the tool due to excessive or poorly timed messages.
Why are daily participation notifications important?
They Give Employees a Voice
In a day filled with digital tools, they remind employees of the importance of their participation in Happyforce.
They Offer Flexibility for Every Employee
While you set up the initial notifications, each employee can adjust them according to their preferences.
Participation reminders
When an employee hasn't participated for a while, we send reminders to encourage them to re-engage. These reminders are tailored based on the activity in the account during that period but can be summarized as follows:
Morning Reminders
Reminders of updates to start the day without missing out on what's new. (Configurable until 11:00 AM)
Midday Reminders
Participation reminders to encourage employees to log their mood. (Configurable between 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM)
Afternoon Reminders
Social reminders to encourage employees to leave feedback, respond to comments, or catch up on conversations. (Configurable between 3:00 PM - 10:00 PM, during that time of day when work starts to take a backseat and we feel more social)
Yo'll also have the option to choose which days of the week to send these reminders, and this setting cannot be modified by the employees.
Why are participation reminders important?
Help Focus on What Matters
They highlight relevant communications or activities, helping employees organize themselves and focus their attention on what truly matters.
Reduce Forgetfulness
In the daily hustle, it's easy to forget certain tasks, and we know that participating in Happyforce may not even be in the top 10 activities your employees do in their day. Reminders act as support to ensure employees don't overlook important actions.
EXTRA: Birthday and work anniversary notifications
If you set the employee's birthdate and work anniversary of your employees, we will send an individual greeting to the employee on that day on behalf of Happyforce. No one else will be able to see it (if you're looking for a public greeting visible to the entire organization, check this out).
You can enable or disable this option at any time from the configuration panel.
