The Honorable, The Legislature:
The Department of Industry, Labor and Human Relations has completed a study to determine the feasibility of establishing a toll-free line for PECFA inquiries. I am pleased to report that process reengineering efforts in our Safety and Buildings Division and the technological capabilities of a voice response unit combine to make such a service workable and cost efficient for Wisconsin taxpayers.
We propose to implement a voice response unit to support the toll-free line. This technology has been successful in our Unemployment Compensation and Equal Rights programs. Simply stated, the caller will be prompted with basic information and then asked to leave their question and a return telephone number. Inquiries could be made throughout the day, including evenings and weekends.
This process will allow Safety and Buildings to :
schedule staff to handle the expected volume of PECFA calls,
research questions and have staff prepared to answer the typically complex inquiries, and
return calls using the State Telephone System (STS) at a rate 35% lower than toll-free service.
The PECFA toll-free inquiry process will start after July 1, 1995. This schedule provides us with time to incorporate system costs in our SFY96 operating budget and to integrate the service with other improvements as we implement a Customer Service Center in Safety and Buildings.
In the meantime, we will continue our efforts at educating the PECFA community and reinforce the availability of DILHR On-Line, a computer bulletin board that provides storage tank information 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
I am convinced these changes will improve support to the PECFA program and provide us with opportunities to expand our services in the future.
Sincerely,
Carol Skornicka
Secretary
