- Designing HR case management workflows and routing rules
- Creating knowledge-base articles for employee self-service
- Defining escalation paths from Tier 1 to specialist HR teams
- Building HR contact center scripts and macros
- Measuring HR service delivery performance (case volume, resolution time, CSAT)
- Designing employee self-service portal content structure
- Drafting HR service delivery charters and governance models
- Creating onboarding materials for new HR service center agents
- Auditing case management data for recurring issue trends
Key prompts
Service model design
- "Design a 3-tier HR service delivery model for a company of [size]."
- "Build an HR service catalog covering the most common employee requests."
- "Define escalation criteria for when a Tier 1 case should move to Tier 2."
- "Design a case routing workflow for [request type, e.g., leave of absence]."
- "Draft a charter defining the HR service delivery team's scope and governance."
SLAs and performance
- "Write an SLA for response and resolution time on [case type]."
- "Create a dashboard spec to track HR case volume, resolution time, and CSAT."
- "Draft a monthly HR service delivery performance report template."
- "Define escalation SLAs for urgent case types like harassment complaints."
- "Create a root-cause analysis template for recurring case categories."
Self-service and knowledge
- "Write a knowledge-base article answering [common employee question]."
- "Design the information architecture for an employee self-service portal."
- "Draft a script for HR service center agents handling [case type]."
- "Create onboarding materials for a new HR contact center agent."
- "Identify which case types are good candidates to move to self-service."
Tips
- Route sensitive cases (harassment, legal, medical) directly to specialists, never through general Tier 1 queues.
- Track root causes of high-volume case categories to fix upstream issues, not just resolve tickets faster.
- Keep self-service content updated whenever policy changes to avoid inconsistent answers.
- Set SLAs that reflect actual case complexity, not a single blanket target for all case types.
Common mistakes
- Treating every case type with the same SLA regardless of sensitivity or complexity.
- Building a self-service portal without a clear escalation path for edge cases.
- Measuring only speed (resolution time) without measuring quality (CSAT, reopened cases).
- Failing to define clear ownership boundaries between HRBPs and the service delivery team.
