RecStaff uses text messages (SMS) to send important information such as shift notifications, schedule updates, reminders, and time-sensitive alerts. To ensure these messages are delivered reliably and are easy to recognize, we recommend saving RecStaff as a contact on your Android device.


RecStaff currently sends SMS messages from the following phone numbers:

  • (250) 800-2864

  • (888) 802-2864


For best results, both numbers should be saved under a single contact named RecStaff.
