Downtime is becoming an epidemic

Whether big or small, downtime is not a good news for anyone.

Some staffs may use downtime as a reason to lean back, put their feet up, and restfully collect their hourly pay; we’re talking about the other half.

Just think about the IT crew they can’t sit back and relax when downtime occurs because they’re typically taking the all the hardship of the storm. They will utterly grow tired of the daily routine of having to settle the winds and having no additional workforce or resources to change things for the better business operation.

Moreover, these things incur higher employee turnover, and the overheads that come with training and skill development cost more elevated, and it would be a revolving door as well.

Customer dissatisfaction

Customer satisfaction is the core value that leads every business towards success. If we fail at its stem, our company couldn’t have any continuity further. Customers have their specific expectations form every service providers. They expect it anytime that they require it.

In this age of social media, everything is open, and anyone can share their experience with the whole world. So even one person’s bad review is enough to knock our business down entirely. Moreover, bad news spreads faster than a hundred year of goodwill and name.
