SMS scheduling for flex workers
Many employment agencies and employers use SMS that is fully automated to schedule their staff. These flex workers and part-timers receive an SMS message via the SMS Gateway at Spryng with information about the time and date of the shift. Here they can reply by sending an SMS message, for example YES or NO so that the entire schedule is filled in automatically.
SMS for online scheduling
A new trend to cut costs is to let staff schedule themselves in online. This way employees are invited weekly by SMS to fill in their availability in the online employee portal. They are also reminded by SMS for other matters, such as the amount of hours they have worked and planning holidays.
SMS for communicating vacancies
Besides automatically scheduling staff, SMS is also ideal for communicating vacancies. Recruitment agencies send an SMS message to all those who have signed up when there is a new vacancy within a desired field. As 98% of all text messages are almost instantly opened and read, SMS is much more effective for communicating vacancies than the traditional medium of e-mail.
