Creating a Positive Work Environment for Call Center Outsourcing

OABPO Blog Team Published on September 13, 2013 Last updated on July 8, 2022

Outsourcing call centers go to great lengths to ensure that they can deliver results to impress their clients. Oftentimes, this entails providing a positive workplace for their own workforce.

Just like any industry, work in business process outsourcing (BPO) can be stressful, so it is only right for companies in this industry to ensure their workers are taken care of.

The Value of Having a Positive Work Environment

Keeping an open and stress-free work environment in your outsourcing call center includes the following benefits:

  • Low employee attrition
  • Boost in productivity
  • Higher output quality
  • Better morale
  • Improved stress management
  • Enhanced brand reputation
  • Better professional relationships

Salaries, bonuses, and other compensations are great incentives to continue working for you. Having a positive work environment, on the other hand, gives them a satisfying work life they can look forward to every day, one that can inspire loyalty and encourage them to perform their best work every shift.

Enhancing Your Work Environment

Outsourcing call center production floors should be fun, interactive, and conducive to productivity.

To achieve this, here are some of the things you should work on.

  • A Comfortable Workspace

    It should be a place where agents feel welcome and can see themselves working comfortably and productively for hours every day, generally with:

    • an office layout meant to reduce noisy distractions
    • essential tech that lets them work with ease
    • ergonomic chairs and tables to make their stay comfortable
    • accessible amenities for their daily needs, such as dining areas, common spaces, rec rooms and sleeping quarters.
  • Fair Working Conditions
