One to one
A direct line to their recruiter.

Workers message a team, and whoever is on picks it up with the history in front of them.

“Using the blasts has been a game changer.”
“I’m a huge supporter of the client portal. We have 60% of our clients using it, and 100% of them said that it improved communication with [us].”
Is texting included?

Where are messages stored?
On the worker record in ActivateStaff, alongside calls, placements and documents.
