In unionized environments, it is imperative that management adheres to negotiated contracts. This includes notifying staff of available unscheduled overtime hours and calling staff based on seniority. Disputes can arise when proper procedures are not followed.

With call accounting software, union officials and managers can rely on concrete
statistics to satisfy disputes and avoid grievances. Call accounting reports
provide an unbiased mechanism that can determine if appropriate procedures were
followed and the proper personnel were notified. Call records can be analyzed
based on corporate priority sequence, date and time of the call and number of
occurrences.
