The Power of one agent
The Power of once Call Center Agent
For every call center agent not in place when scheduled, there’s a huge impact on the service level. If an agent is late returning from break or was not there when the shift starts, this puts a big pressure not only on your service pressure but also by multiplying the workload of your team members in the shift.
The below Table is a good example of how powerful each and every call center agent has and how every time there is a decrease of one Call Center agent (see Available Staff column) , there is a sharp decline in the service level (See SL in 20 sec Column)
Also notice the (Avr. Delay) Column, that's how long the customer is listening to a machine or to your choice of music before an available agent can answer. see how it went up from 18 seconds to over 3 minutes.
