Creating Worker Profiles Clause Samples
Creating Worker Profiles. ⏹ Encourage the use of the organization’s email addresses when setting up app stores and creating accounts for third-party apps used for online outreach and case management. A payment method is not typically required for setting up an app store.

On dating apps, it is acceptable and recommended to use an alias. An outreach worker may put themselves at risk using their full name in spaces where most users are anonymous.

Outreach workers who are comfortable doing so may use their own images on social media but must first be walked through the possible risks of being identifiable (such as being contacted outside of work by clients, solicited sexually by clients, outed to friends or family as a worker in an HIV program, outed as a member of a key population). Those who choose not to use an identifiable image could use an image in which they could not be identified such as a profile shot with low lighting, a filtered photo, or a cartoon or avatar that protects their anonymity. Staff should confirm their choice of profile photo with their organization management to ensure it is professional, properly represents the organizational brand, and meets local staff security and privacy concerns. ⏹ Consider making social media profiles private to individually add prospective clients.
