transcosmos hereby announces that the company will launch a new service designed specifically for contact center business, which is clients’ customer-facing operations, to address “customer harassment,” i.e., customers harassing front-line workers with aggressive behavior or unreasonable requests. In recent years, customer harassment has become an increasing social problem in Japan, in particular in the call center industry. As an industry leader, transcosmos will face this issue head-on and help clients take measures against customer harassment by providing all-inclusive solutions powered by generative AI (GenAI).
The service consists primarily of three key elements as follows:
1. Define the meaning of customer harassment
transcosmos defines the meaning of customer harassment in detail based on its long-standing record in the call-center business. By sharing the same definition with their employees, clients can identify and address customer harassments at an early stage.
2. Propose GenAI-powered measures
During a customer call, the service performs emotion analysis based on automated voice analysis, enabling clients to detect customer harassment in real time. Once identified, agents can take measures such as asking for supervisors’ support and terminating the call. With this system in place, clients can protect their agents and reduce their stress.
3. Implement and manage customer harassment measures
transcosmos will provide end-to-end services for clients to take measures from planning to implementation. The service includes creating a manual for handling customer harassment issues, running training sessions, conducting regular assessments, and proposing plans for improvement.
