Overview
In an office setting, a sup may simply view his/her team to see who is present and tap an agent on the shoulder to get their attention.
In the virtual word, an agent may be logged into ADP and may even show in “Waiting” status for a call but we cannot be certain the agent is not away from his/her desk about to miss the next call.
Missing Start of Shift Agents
Each sup should be mindful of each agent’s scheduled start time.
If an agent’s start time has passed by an hour 30 minutes or more and they have not logged into ADP, check the WFM attendance sheet for an approved occurrence (HR approved, PTO, etc) or an unapproved occurrence (Tardy or UA) which indicates WFM is awarehas been notified.
If the attendance sheet is blank or NCNS, call the agent’s personal phone to get them online, if possible.
MIA Agents
If the Dialer shows an agent offline for 10+ min or in an unproductive status for 10+ min longer than allowed (ie 40 min lunch, etc):
DM the agent in Teams
Call the agent in Teams
Call their personal phone and leave a message, if voice box is not full.
If unable to reach after the above attempts, punch the agent out of ADP and send another Teams chat notifying them of their unproductive status, the outreach attempts made, and that they have now been logged out of ADP.
Add a note in ADP labeled “MIA.”
If this becomes a recurring issue, move forward with Coachings/CAPs as appropriate.
verify the situation and encourage them to login for work.
Attendance Reporting
WFM updates the 90-day Attendance Report each day.
Points are accrued when:
Agents call the WFM attendance line reporting attendance occurrences (tardy, leave early, MIA, or absent).
Sups notify WFM of attendance occurrences
If an agent is absent, tardy, left early, MIA, but does not report these to WFM, the WFM team will catch this the following day when referencing the CR & Productivity Report.
The CR & Productivity report shows how many ADP hours were logged.
If an agent is short by over 30 + minutes ADP minutes, they will be marked MIA.
If an agent is short by over 4 + ADP hours, they will accrue 1 point.
The regional manager Management runs a 90-day pivot once/wk.
This is added to the Attendance - Weekly Report.
The Notes notes cell of this report for agents who have accrued points will be flagged highlighted yellow.
The purpose of the yellow highlight is to prompt the sup sups to leave a note to acknowledge notes acknowledging points are stacking and attest that the agent is aware and has been coached or received a CAP as appropriate.
Notes are required for :
Any agentagents who now has 2 or more points
who had fewer than 2 points from the preceding week’s 90-day pivot.Any agent already with 2 or more points from the previous week’s 90-day pivot who has gained additional pointsin the past 90-days. However, if the agent has already been coached for their current points on a previous week, there is no need to coach again.
These notes must be added by Close of Business each Wednesday.
Accountability
Sups are responsible to add ADP notes for agents between two to four points reminding them of the Agent Attendance Policy.
Sups are responsible move through the coaching/CAP process as outlined in the Agent Attendance Policy.
As mentioned, sups are responsible to add notes in the Attendance - Weekly report. Below is Below demonstrates an example of good coaching notes:
