SMS Opt-In & Consent Verification

PTI Quality Containment Solutions

This page documents the SMS opt-in process used by PTI Quality Containment Solutions (“PTI QCS”) for employees who voluntarily choose to receive employment-related and operational text messages.

PTI QCS obtains SMS consent offline through a physical paper consent form during employee onboarding.

Employees do not opt in to SMS messaging merely by providing or maintaining a mobile phone number in CRIS ERP. A mobile phone number may be stored in CRIS ERP for employee records, but SMS messages are only sent to employees for whom SMS consent has been obtained and recorded.

How Employees Opt In to SMS

PTI QCS uses the following process to obtain affirmative SMS consent:

Step 1 — Employee Receives the Consent Form

During employee onboarding, the employee is provided with a physical consent form containing a dedicated section for SMS communications.

Step 2 — Employee Provides a Mobile Phone Number

The employee may provide the mobile telephone number at which they wish to receive employment-related SMS messages.

Providing a mobile phone number by itself does not constitute consent to receive SMS messages.

Step 3 — Employee Reviews the SMS Disclosure

Before opting in, the employee is presented with the SMS consent disclosure explaining the types of messages PTI QCS may send and the applicable messaging terms.

Step 4 — Employee Affirmatively Selects SMS Consent

The SMS consent checkbox on the form is unchecked by default.

Employees who wish to receive SMS messages must affirmatively check the SMS consent box themselves.

SMS consent is voluntary and is not required as a condition of employment.

Step 5 — Employee Signs and Dates the Form

The employee signs and dates the form to document their selection and acknowledgment.

Step 6 — Consent Is Recorded

After the completed form is received, PTI QCS records the employee’s SMS consent status.

The employee’s mobile number may then be used by CRIS ERP to send authorized employment-related and operational SMS communications.

CRIS ERP is the messaging and employee-management platform used after consent has been obtained. Entering a mobile number into CRIS ERP does not, by itself, constitute SMS consent.

SMS Consent Disclosure

Employees who affirmatively opt in agree to receive SMS text messages from PTI Quality Containment Solutions (PTI QCS) at the mobile number they provide.

Messages may include employment-related and operational communications such as:

  • Work schedule and shift notifications

  • Shift changes or scheduling updates

  • Attendance-related notifications

  • Assignment or work-location information

  • Operational updates

  • Employee notifications and reminders

  • Other employment-related communications from PTI QCS

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

Employees may reply STOP to any SMS message to opt out of future SMS communications.

Employees may reply HELP for assistance.

SMS consent is voluntary and is not a condition of employment.

Employees may decline SMS consent and continue the employee onboarding process.

The form shown above and available through the PDF link is the actual mechanism used by PTI QCS to obtain employee SMS consent.

There is no public online SMS signup form, and employees do not opt in simply by entering a telephone number into CRIS ERP.

Relationship Between SMS Consent and CRIS ERP

CRIS ERP is PTI QCS’s employee-management and operational communications platform.

The roles of the consent form and CRIS ERP are separate:

Physical Employee Consent Form

Used to obtain the employee’s affirmative consent to receive SMS messages.

CRIS ERP

Used to maintain applicable employee information and send authorized operational and employment-related SMS communications after consent has been obtained and recorded.

The presence of an employee’s mobile telephone number in CRIS ERP does not independently establish SMS consent.

PTI QCS maintains records of employee consent so that the company can determine whether an employee has authorized SMS communications.

Opting Out

Employees may withdraw SMS consent at any time.

To stop receiving SMS messages from PTI QCS, employees may reply:

STOP

After opting out, the employee will no longer receive SMS messages from the applicable PTI QCS messaging program unless the employee subsequently provides valid consent again.

Employees may reply:

HELP

for assistance with SMS communications.

Message and data rates may apply.

Mobile phone numbers and SMS consent information will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Information may be shared with service providers when necessary to provide and operate the SMS messaging service or as otherwise required by law.
