Overview

If you need help with When I Work, you can contact our Customer Care team for assistance.

You can also contact us from your computer or iOS device.

Considerations

When I Work offers support through tickets and live chat rather than phone assistance. Online support allows us to quickly and efficiently deliver the answers you need. We decided to keep our support online for a few reasons:

  • We can instantly view your workplace, account activity, system details, and other information so we can troubleshoot effectively.
  • Managing your account is a visual process. We frequently ask you to send us screenshots, videos, and links to help us see what you’re seeing. We can also send you screenshots and videos to guide you in the right direction.
  • It’s faster. We can quickly get to the bottom of your questions without putting you on hold.
  • Online support keeps detailed records in one place. This ensures nothing gets lost in translation if we need to escalate your issue. We’ll always have access to previous tickets so you won’t have to repeat questions.
Sending Sensitive Documents

Please do not upload or otherwise provide When I Work with any documents containing sensitive personal information such as Social Security numbers, bank account information, passwords, or government-issued IDs such as driver’s licenses and passports.
If any such sensitive information is needed, please work with the Customer Care Team, who will assist you in delivering such information securely.
