Do I need a NIF to sign up?
No. You do not need a NIF or a NISS to sign up and apply for shifts. If you want, you can add them to your profile.
What data of mine does the business receive?
Your phone and your email are not shown to businesses. Your NIF and NISS are optional: you do not need them to sign up or to apply. Your date of birth is used to confirm that you are 18. When you accept a shift, or when you are chosen in the 2 hours before the start, that shift's business receives your full name and, if you have given them, your date of birth, NIF and NISS, to report your hiring to the Segurança Social. The business does the reporting; tempjobs never does. Other businesses do not see them.

How do new shift alerts work?
We tell people who have the shift's district and role, or no role chosen. We do not tell people who switched off «Available for shifts», who are on a pause or have a pause on the day of the shift, or who already have a shift booked at the same time. By default, notifications do not ring between 23:00 and 08:00: at the end one arrives with the shifts still open. At most 4 notifications and 2 emails about new shifts a day. The rest arrive together the next morning. Emails can come right away or in one summary a day. You choose all this in Account, in «New shift alerts». These choices never count against you, businesses never see them and the board always shows every shift.
