We are launching two official WhatsApp groups — one for permanent employees and one for temporary/part-time employees — as part of our commitment to improve company-wide communication and ensure important messages are delivered directly and efficiently.
GROUP OVERVIEW
Permanent Employee Group
● Joining this group is compulsory for all permanent employees with access to WhatsApp.
● Only group admins will be allowed to post. No comments or replies will be enabled for group members.
● Only messages that apply to the entire company will be shared in this group — and only here — to avoid duplicating messages across multiple groups.
● Team/department-specific messages will continue to be sent in the relevant existing WhatsApp groups.
● All posts will be important and must be taken seriously.
● Messages will be shared only during working hours (Monday to Friday). No weekend posts will be made unless necessary.
● If you leave the group, you will be re-added. The group is an official communication channel and must remain active on your phone.
● Please ensure notifications are turned ON and the group is not muted.
● Only permanent employees will be added to this group.
● Refusal to join or leaving the group may be viewed as non-compliance and may result in disciplinary action.
Temporary/Part-Time Employee Group
● A separate group will be created specifically for temporary and part-time staff.
● This group will also be admin-only posting and used for important messages relevant to this team.
● Messages will be limited and shared only when necessary to keep you informed of key updates.
● Joining this group is compulsory for all current temporary staff with access to WhatsApp.
HOW YOU WILL BE ADDED
Once t-shirts are ready for collection:
● Each employee will visit their selected collection point.
● The Responsible Person will collect your WhatsApp number at the time of collection.
● You will be added to the correct WhatsApp group (Permanent or Temporary) immediately.
● You will be asked to confirm that you have been successfully added before leaving the collection point.
● There will be a short activation period after distribution during which we will ensure that all staff have been added to the appropriate group before either becomes active.
● The go-live date of both groups will be communicated once t-shirt distribution is complete.
If you have any questions or if you're unsure whether you’ve been added correctly, please contact your Branch Manager or Area Manager.
Thank you for your cooperation and support in helping us build a stronger and more connected communication system for everyone across the company.
