Real-time adherence (RTA) is a key workforce management (WFM) solution that tracks whether agents are following their schedules as planned. It provides a live look at what agents are doing compared to their assigned tasks at any given moment.
For example, RTA shows if an agent is:
- On a call when scheduled to be on a call: This indicates they are in adherence.
- On a break when scheduled to be taking calls: This indicates they are out of adherence.
RTA gives contact center supervisors immediate visibility into agent activity and helps them identify and address any deviations from the schedule in real-time.

- Improved agent productivity: By monitoring adherence in real-time, supervisors can quickly identify and address off-task behavior, ensuring agents are spending their time productively.
- Enhanced customer experience: Maintaining adherence helps ensure proper staffing levels and reduces customer wait times, leading to better service and increased satisfaction.
- Increased operational efficiency: RTA allows for immediate adjustments to staffing levels, ensuring optimal coverage throughout the day and minimizing wasted resources.
- Proactive issue identification: Real-time alerts notify supervisors of adherence issues, enabling them to address problems quickly and prevent them from escalating.
- Data-driven performance insights: RTA provides valuable data on agent behavior and schedule effectiveness, which can be used to improve forecasting, scheduling, and overall workforce management.
While often used interchangeably, adherence and compliance have distinct meanings in the context of workforce management:
- Adherence measures how well agents stick to their assigned schedules in real-time. It focuses on whether agents are performing their scheduled activities at the planned times.
- Compliance refers to an agent’s overall adherence to schedules and policies over a longer period. It considers factors like attendance, punctuality, break durations, and adherence to time-off request procedures.
In essence, adherence is a real-time, operational metric, while compliance is a broader measure of an agent’s overall commitment to workplace rules and schedules.
