call center average hold time
Handling Time = Talk Time + Hold Time + After Call Work Time. So Handling Time is the sum of Talk Time, Hold Time and After Call Work Time. Let me explain the above mentioned terms: Average Talk Time also known as ATT is the total time a call center executive is talking to a customer. Average Hold Time is the time for which a call center executive puts the customer on hold by pressing the Hold key on his phone. Keep in mind that blank or dead air does not count as hold time, it is added to the talk time or ATT.
