Optional job-text alerts: enrollment process
Field Time employees do not enroll in SMS alerts when their account is created. After signing in, the employee enters or confirms their own mobile number in the SMS Settings form and independently chooses whether to receive job-related text alerts from Perkins/Carmack Construction, LLC. This choice is not required to use the app or as a condition of employment.
1. An office contact record does not enroll an employee
The office may record a mobile number in the employee-management screen. Entering a number here does not opt the employee in. The example below has private access details redacted. The employee must separately complete the SMS Settings form described below.
2. The employee makes a separate, optional choice
After signing in, the employee opens Settings and enters or confirms their mobile number in the editable “Mobile number for SMS alerts” field, using international format such as +15135551212. The SMS checkbox is unchecked for employees who have not enrolled. Changing the number clears the checkbox and requires a new consent choice.
The employee reads the disclosure and linked SMS Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, actively checks “I want to receive optional job-text alerts,” and selects “Save text-alert choice.” Saving records consent for the exact number entered and updates the number on file. Previous active consent records are revoked when a new enrollment is saved.
The screenshot below shows the employee SMS Settings form before enrollment, with an example phone number, an unchecked consent box, the disclosure, policy links, and Save button. The Save button remains disabled until the employee changes their consent choice.
Consent and control
The disclosure identifies Perkins/Carmack Construction, LLC, describes recurring shift and missed-clock-out reminders, says that message frequency varies and message and data rates may apply, and explains STOP and HELP. Field Time records the phone number, consent time, and disclosure shown when the employee saves an opt-in. Employees may opt out in Settings or by replying STOP.
Current consent wording shown in Field Time Settings:
I agree to receive recurring automated, job-related text messages from Perkins/Carmack Construction, LLC at the number provided, including shift and missed-clock-out reminders. Consent is not a condition of employment or use of Field Time. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel or HELP for help. See Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
