What if an employee doesn't receive a code?

If an employee doesn't receive a code, the most common reasons are that the email address or phone number entered doesn't match the one on their Homebase account, or the message landed in a spam or junk folder. To resolve it, have the employee confirm the contact information on their Homebase profile, check their spam or junk folder, and then request a new code on the sign-in page.
