Judged by Customers who called the Call Center
and Employees Who Work in a Call Center
SQM awards excellence in customer and employee satisfaction for the call center industry. SQM benchmarked over 260 call centers for the period of October 1, 2005 - October 27, 2006. In each call center, SQM surveyed 200 - 400 customers within 1-3 days of their call to the call center to understand their satisfaction with their service experience. In addition, for each call center that participated in the employee benchmarking study, SQM surveyed 50 - 300 employees who work in their call center to understand their satisfaction working in their call center. Based on the call centers benchmarked, SQM recognizes the following Service Quality Award of Excellence Winners for 2006.
These prestigious industry awards were held at our Annual Summit, held in Toronto, November 29, 30 and December 1, 2006.
