Workforce optimization uses all aspects of the complete workforce management life-cycle and provides key insights into how its workforce is performing, with a focus on customer experience. Workforce optimization includes automating entire processes, making key data more visible to support better decision-making, ensuring compliance on relevant legislation and solving business problems related to staff.[1] It is used by contact centers to make convenient communication with customers, such as text messaging support.[2]

The strategy ties together the human resources, operations and IT departments of a business. Workforce optimization manages the performance of staff to understand the impact on both operational efficiency and the customer experience.[3] Companies use VoC insights to improve customer experience, which increases the effectiveness of its agents and builds customer loyalty.[1]
