Learn how to personalize and maintain your Field Link home page for your Company.
Getting Started
The Home Page can include important messages and links for Management and Employees each day as they go throughout the work day. It is completely customizable and can include any items you deem important in your business. Examples are: Weather bulletins, Human Resources Forms, Construction Link website links, Project Statuses, Work Schedules, and more.
🗒️Note: When you sign up for Field Link, TCLI will create your homepage with basic information: TCLI Homepage Links and a link to our online Knowledge Base, basic welcome messages, accident free status page and weather by Accuweather. This page can be changed to your company's preferences after initial setup.
