According to our poll, little more than one quarter of contact centres do not incentivise agent performance with bonuses.

In most cases, bonuses are based on individual quality scores (55%), but many contact centres also link agent performance with pay through sales based bonuses (27%) or team quality bonuses (17%).

Poll – “Do you link agent performance to pay?” – answers

  • Individual quality bonus – 55%
  • Team quality bonus – 17%
  • Sales based bonus – 27%
  • No bonus – 27%

(Multiple answers were allowed during this poll, so the total does not add up to 100%.)
