Why US unemployment call centers need to put customer service first

Overview

The unemployment benefits claims process is under increasing pressure due to Covid-19. The scenario is a familiar one:

  • Inbound calls rocket, and service agents have even less time to deal with claims
  • This vicious circle leaves citizens frustrated

Inbound calls drop because citizens understand where they stand, freeing agents to spend time on the more complex cases. This eBook presents a 5-step plan to better serve citizens making unemployment benefits claims.
