It is a good practice to have a good hygiene. Though centers would usually have maintenance, prevention is still better than cure. Working in a call center would usually affect the social life of an agent as well due to the drastic change of schedule, and that may arise to conflicts in work and performance as well. Global, formerly known as veldt Events Inc. The headquarters of the company is in Magmata City operating in 30 locations. Their areas served are North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Currently this year, Sip Global has been held as the â€Å"BestEmployer of the Year† in the International CIT Awards. Working in a call center has always had its draw backs for the past century, when BOP (Business Process Outsourcing) was being catered by business firms from other countries. And here in the Philippines, we usually encounter business men from the west countries due to the differences in â€Å"Labor Cost† compared to their country. That is why people from SIP Gl obal would have a sense of opportunity since they are working locally but for a company that is outside of the country.Business trips are sometimes given by clients to the managerial team of the LOB or Line of Business. In any call center company, SIP Global had some fare share of experience when it comes to labor management since the company has run for over 34 years running. And we can note that there are main problems that Sip Global encounters. Some common problems within a call center industry would be Agent Absenteeism which directly is affected by work schedules that are sometimes forced by the management that is in contrary to the agent's liking. Another would be Staff Attrition.Since by default, agents know that there are a lot of call centers out there, they would find the one that suits to them. One factor is the schedule which the agent prefers, if it is for a day schedule or going to work at night shift for the Hazard/ Night differential pay. These 2 notable habits of a usual agent are directly affected by work schedule, thus would always result on the same ending.
