The pandemic has revealed the strength of call center companies. Also their role in maintaining a social bond between consumers and businesses.
But BPO is one of the industries that suffered due to COVID-19.
While most people can continue to make a living during the lockdown. Some call centers need their agents to physically appear at work. They are somehow considered as front liners for the economy.
Call centers are unique because they serve a variety of industries. Such as healthcare and ecommerce. This poses challenges unlike any other to company owners. Managers have to create policies and rules to help maintain their employees’ health.
The coronavirus outbreak wrecks many industries. It, in turn, breaks the world economy.
BPO companies are also affected by the pandemic, below are the figures of what happened:
BPO helps sustain the Philippines ‘ economy.
But, due to the strict quarantine restrictions. BPO businesses find it difficult to maintain a normal level of staffing. This is because of the lack of means to travel and health safety.
This, in turn, affected a lot of foreign businesses.
Since call centers play a vital role in the economy. The country’s pandemic task force provided the country with guidelines on how to operate.
This includes instructions such as the number of staff allowed to work. And social distancing measures.
Companies, like Magellan Solutions, quickly transitioned to a work from home set-up. Others also implemented their own safety policies in the office.
Also, most outsourcing companies have given help to their employees. Such as financial aids and extra leaves.
