HGS Work@HomeTM Virtual CX
Secure, scalable, and synced with the cloud
In 2016, HGS implemented our first work-at-home programs with great success. Our employees enjoyed a remote environment, our clients were pleased with the team’s high-performing metrics, and our clients’ customers received the same high-quality care as traditional in-center staff provides. Best of all, with agents located in different areas, unexpected events caused little to no service interruption.
Remote work is now considered standard operating procedure for thousands of global enterprises. Over the past five years, the HGS Work@HomeTM team has continuously expanded and enhanced our remote operations capabilities, and we currently provide world-leading brands with 24/7/365 cloud-enabled virtual support.
HGS has successfully shifted over 90% of our global workforce to remote operations, and our ESAT and CSAT scores are both at an all-time high.
“The successful transition to work-at-home has given us the highest employee satisfaction scores and customer satisfaction scores ever.”
—Partha DeSarkar, Executive Director and Global CEO of HGS

We monitor each person’s emotional bank account via frequent surveys and whole-person scheduled touchpoints, and we offer a virtual mentoring program as well.
