2.1 Customer Complaints
A single complaint coming from a client is a manifestation of dissatisfaction. Although
this will serve as a feedback of the quality of YakkaTech Pty Ltd IT systems
infrastructures, it should be considered as a significant factor. The management should
be focused towards the complaints process and how it should be handled. Problems needto be defined and to clarify the firms policy towards complaint handling. Finally
establishing procedures for implementing companys policies in order to satisfy clients
plays an important role. The core in complaint handling engages in the synchronization
of firms resources with the clients requirements. This will resolve the slow response to
clients problem by achieving an acceptable match between a response required by the
client and the response that consumer service should be rendered to them (Resnick &
Harmon, 1983). It is important to address complaints at the soonest and in a fair
approach rather than having a defensive manner in dealing the problems. One of the
essentials for prevention of this is developing a structured costumer complaint
management. In order to resolve a fast complaint response, a customer voice processing
technique is made to translate complaints into factors of rectification. It composes of
customer and technical information matrix for the purpose of transforming the complaints
into attainable factor and defining and developing a problem statement. From this,
complaints are processed according to its importance level to prioritize the complaints
based on frequency (Shanmugaraja, Nataraj & Gunasekaran, 2010). On the other hand,
Chan and Ngai illustrates that complaint handling refers to the adaptation of strategies
use by the company to resolve and learn from failures of customers service to gain again
the firms reliability and integrity (Chan & Ngai, 2010).
2.2 Employee Fast Turn-over
The number of employee resignations in Yakkatech Pty Ltd had risen for the last eighteen
months which there is a fast turnover above the industry average. As a result, labour
increased in training new staffs and low productivity of new staffs. It is established that
there is a relationship between employee satisfaction, employee turnover and customer
satisfaction. Poor work environment is one of the indication of high employee turnover
however will reflect the loss of veteran employees which will result in negative effects in
the clients (Hurley & Estelami, 2005). It is essential to understand the causes of turnover
in order to reduce it. Various reasons are cited for this phenomenon and these include
poor management, low compensation and the desire to alleviate employees quality of
life. It is an accepted theory that if employees received fair treatment and rewards from
management employees will feel obligated to remain in the company (Kacmar &
Andrews, ).

the customer service representative. This will result with the primary objective of
response from the customer service the client satisfaction (Resnik & Harmon, 1983).
Promoting good communication, cooperation and understanding between employees inYakkaTech Pty Ltd would be recommended since these will contribute in the elimination
of conflicts within the division. This is based on the general concept of conflicts which is
a disagreement regarding interests or ideas and differences of opinions. For the same
reason, it will also address conflicts that are caused by negative emotions such as
personal tensions, frustrations and anger (van Woerkom & van Engen, 2009).
Perceptions of work environment and job design can influence YakkaTech Pty Ltdcustomer service employees attitudes, behaviours and work performance. These will
also affect client perceptions of customer service quality, value and satisfaction.
Management characteristics, social environment, over all perception of the job and
personality are the factors that will influence these (Mascio, 2010).
Management should strategically use self-esteem in assigning work to employees insteadof monetary reward in a knowledge environment. This will motivate them successfullyto innovate and result to a better performance. Motivation is the prime factor in retaining
experienced employees within the company and reduced operation cost in training new
employees. Management should emphasised the importance of family and other personal
relationships of employees to make a new balance between job and family life (Amar,
2004).
Major reorganisation should be taken into consideration In YakkTech Pty Ltd with themain objective of offering the fully integrated customer service to its clients. A series of
workshops should be conducted on addressing issues such as customer relations, quality
of communications between clients and customer service representatives. In investing on
this training, systems are developed for the sole purpose of satisfying customers. In the
case for the management point of view this will mean continually aiming for excellence.
In addition to this, the importance of innovation made by employees for work
effectiveness should be accepted. Developing, implementing and adopting new ideas for
new work methods in customer service should be considered as an innovative behaviour
and as an important factor in an effective business work environment (Yuan &
Woodman, ). Effective management can make different practices by using this
extensive workforce training. As this will provide specific task skills that is applicable
for the present work requirements and also for developing future job functions. This
training will also acknowledge the failure of the customer service division in satisfyingclients (Smith & Rupp, 2004).
Effective teamwork should be promoted by the management in YakkaTech Pty Ltd. RayHobbs states that teamwork is a critical operational practice for achieving excellent
customer service. According to Hobbs, teamwork is reinforced through company
rewards. In maintaining teamwork to work effectively, the following characteristics
should be illustrated in a team which are cooperation, coordination, proper
