Hello All,
I need some suggestions on how to determine an agents seniority order. In the past, my companies have used the agents hire date and the last 4 digits of their social security number or the agents hire date and DOB to determine seniority ranking. We have just been advised that we can no longer use the two options of the social or DOB to determined senioty. We cannot use the agents last name because that can change and other company provided numbers like employeed ID's, department codes or scheduling ID because that is all company assisnged. What else is there to use?

We use the test scores they obtained during training to rank them - failing having that information, a random number is sometimes used

We use random numbers, and that seems to work pretty well.

How Do We Keep Our Best During Upheaval?

Things are getting scary for us. We recently had to downsize, and since then have lost some of our best people to other jobs. Aside from boosting their pay (which isn't feasible now), what practical steps can we take to keep them from quitting on us?
