Peter Ryan, Principal Analyst, Ryan Strategic Advisory, observed: “As a global business analyst, I know Teleperformance management, capabilities and operations well across all world regions and markets. Its culture is relentlessly focused on two things; client results excellence and care of its people. Their conversion to a predominately global work-at-home delivery model within a matter of weeks is a historical industry accomplishment few other companies could achieve when measured by speed, scale and precision. This move not only benefits the company, employees and clients for Covid-19 considerations, but positions Teleperformance for success in future ‘new normal’ business realities.”
Teleperformance Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Daniel Julien, said: “Last week, we announced that in just six weeks we were able to convert over 155,000 employees, i.e., over 66% of our operational workforce in our core business, to the work-at-home operational model. This is just part of our continuous efforts to protect the health, safety and welfare of our people while ensuring outstanding service delivery for our clients. The Group’s first-ever work-at-home GPTW® certification is based directly on unbiased third-party surveys by our own employees in Germany. This independently validated feedback and exceptionally high audit scores shows our approach to work at home has been effective and successful. At Teleperformance we care.”
