Automated Employee Call Off Service

An Automated Absentee Reporting (AAR) service is a type of answering service that is specifically designed to handle employee absences. Our Automated Absentee Service uses a phone system and an online portal to allow employees to report their absences.

The AAR Service works by providing employees with a toll-free number where they can report their absence. The employees can either interact with an automated system . The system then captures the employee’s information, such as name, department, and reason for absence, and forwards it to the appropriate person or department within the company.

The AAR service can be configured to suit the specific needs of the company. For example, the system can be set up to automatically send emails or text messages to supervisors or managers when an employee reports an absence.

The AAR service can also provide management with real-time reports of employee attendance, which can be useful for scheduling purposes. This can also help reduce the administrative burden on the human resource department, allowing them to focus on more important tasks.

Overall, an Automated Absentee Reporting service is a useful tool for businesses of all sizes to handle employee absences and schedule changes efficiently and accurately. It can automate the process of capturing employee information, and forwarding it to the appropriate person, making it easier for businesses to manage their workforce.

Live Absentee Reporting Service

On the other hand, a live absentee reporting service is very similar to the automated in terms of it’s functionality. It still captures the basic information that we discussed: name, reason for absence, etc. The main difference is you have a live agent. A live agent is helpful when a business doesn’t have a clean list of employee data, for a company that may have higher turnover, for instance. Additionally, having a live agent available on the phone is always beneficial for employees, as it feels more personal. Many of our clients prefer live agents over automated systems for phone calls that require more information than can be captured in a picklist.
