Ontario, May 29, 2007—CCEOC Inc.
today announced that all three Federal Express Canada Ltd. (“FedEx Express Canada”) customer service
centres have achieved the prestigious Contact Center Employer of Choice® designation
for 2007. This is the fourth year in a row that FedEx Express Canada,
a unit of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX), has participated in the program and
achieved certification.
The Mississauga and Montreal customer service centres achieved the Gold level
designation, while the Vancouver customer service centre achieved the Platinum
level designation.
The Contact Center Employer of Choice (“CCEOC”) program helped identify
areas of improvement for FedEx Express Canada. The company responded by building
exceptional work environments that attracted and retained high-performing employees.
By targeting the key recommendations outlined in the CCEOC Summary Reporting,
the FedEx Express Canada customer service centres have experienced increased
employee satisfaction, increased customer satisfaction and reduced turnover.
“The FedEx Express Canada customer service centres continue to amaze me
in their pursuit of excellence. Maintaining and improving their certification
scores over the past four years clearly demonstrates their dedication to their
employees, customers and community” said Jeff Doran, president of CCEOC
Inc. “Their people-focused values resonate throughout the organization
and have had a profound affect on improving satisfaction, pride, commitment,
respect and ultimately performance. Being recognized as a CCEOC reinforces FedEx
Express Canada’s customer service division as a preferred employer and
FedEx Express Canada as one of the best organizations to work for in the country.”
According to Patsy Bertoia, managing director, FedEx Express Canada Customer
Service, “The FedEx employee culture is to strive to make every customer
experience outstanding. I am proud of all three call centres and this recognition
is a tribute to the FedEx Express Canada call centre representatives that serve
our customers on a day-to-day basis.”
The Contact Center Employer of Choice award is the industry standard for recognizing
and branding people-centric contact centers. Through a proprietary assessment,
a contact center can quickly determine if they meet the qualification standards.
Once the designation is achieved, the contact center is profiled on the official
CCEOC corporate web-site www.ccemployerofchoice.com, receives a prestigious framed
certificate, and is promoted through various print and electronic news channels.
To maintain their CCEOC standing, certified contact centres are reassessed every
12 months.
Other certified centres include: Scotiabank, The Shopping Channel, Roche Diagnostics
ACCU-CHEK, NuComm International, Grand & Toy, Crawford Adjusters, Neteller,
Rogers Communications and CIBA Vision to name a few.
