Also, they have to be very flexible. They make their part time hours – average 23 hours – predominantly early evening or morning and on Saturdays. These findings, using over 9000 recent data of the Dutch WageIndicator, reinforce the earlier research outcome of 2004, indicating a relative deterioration of working conditions in this sector, due to the price war. The study has been carried out by AIAS, university of Amsterdam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>7.

It shows that call centre operators who have to perform in the line of fire, are making relatively long hours for little pay. The average income is 30% above statutory minimum wage. More than 50% puts in a full working week, whereas 4 working hours a day suffice to exhaust anybody in this position – as the Labour Inspectorate suggested earlier. Their pay is low, also given the fact that most operators have finished secondary school and\u002For vocational training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>8.

Their different experiences led them to a joint conclusion: let there be a shorter and longer questionnaire. Belgium, the Netherlands and Finland have almost 120 questions. Germany and the UK less then 70. This is a very much pragmatic outcome of the discussions, as no structural correlation could be discerned between variables such as length of the questionnaire, internet penetration in the country, rate of (un)employment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The questionnaire after restyling will be perfectly readable by the elderly and people with impeded eyesight who can’t read a small fond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All web managers welcome the idea of a WageIndicator Gazette.
