The Contact Information field is where your worker’s emails, phone numbers, and other contact details can be stored. Often workers will have multiple types of contact information with different purposes. Here is a guide to all the possible options. Broadstripes allows you to classify every entry into the Contact Info field by use type (Personal, Business, Home, or Other) and contact type (Phone, Email, Fax, Pager, IM, Link (URL)).

​
Use types

  • Personal: Contact information for personal use
  • Business: Work-related contact information
  • Home: Home contact information
  • Other: Any other type of contact information

​
Contact types

  • Phone: Phone numbers (mobile, landline, etc.)
  • Email: Email addresses
  • Fax: Fax numbers
  • Pager: Pager numbers
  • IM: Instant messaging handles
  • Link (URL): A website or URL (e.g. a social media profile or a personal page). The value is displayed as a clickable link that opens in a new tab. You can enter a full URL like https://instagram.com/janedoe or a bare address like instagram.com/janedoe — Broadstripes adds https:// automatically.
Each contact entry can also have messaging permissions set to control opt-in or opt-out preferences for communications.
