Employee Care Index

ECI allows you to understand and target the specific factors that matter most to employee satisfaction and retention at your organization

What it is

The ECI combines a web-based survey and advanced analytics to determine underlying factors influencing employee satisfaction and retention

Which factors actually matter most for overall satisfaction​ of contact center employees

Which factors drive an agent or supervisor’s likelihood to remain with a company

How different sites, tenure groups, queue types, and/or roles (frontline agent vs. manager) compare within a company

How factors impact performance (satisfaction, retention, capability building)

How it works

CC360 follows four steps approach in a typical end to end customer care engagement for both quantitative and qualitative assessment

Exploratory Data Analysis

Input parameters including performance records, employee records and demographics

Initial analysis on how the churners and the non-churners differ across features

Data Engineering

Treating missing values & outliers

Creating new derived variables based on business logic & client/ expert inputs

Model Selection

Select model to ensure the accuracy of the prediction is not less than ~75-80%

Sample Output

Machine learning based output classifies employees as churners and non-churners

The churn score help identify the employees that are about to churn or may churn in the near future

Why use it

Multiple benefits

Employee engagement impacts CSAT, employee retention and overall company performance

Attrition is costly: Average attrition cost per agent is ~$10-20k

Understanding the drivers of employee satisfaction and retention enables companies to lower their attrition rates and ultimately improve service

Frontline focused

General employee surveys are typically organization wide and designed with the entire company in mind

The ECI focuses on contact centers and the frontline, asks questions that are design to reveal not just opinions, but the actual magnitude of impact certain aspects of the job and work environment have on satisfaction

Insightful data

The ECI collects specific data that can be used to determine a derived magnitude of importance and provide detail on intrinsic motivation factors

The data collected by this survey tool is different than typical demographic and performance data

The insights provided by the ECI can be a great starting point for more in-depth people analytics initiatives
