Abstract
Given the current nature of electronic fraud prevention, there is a demand for high-quality and prompt customer service. These organizations must design well thought out strategies for improving customer service, especially with regard to reducing attention times, as any delays can lead to a higher level of fraud losses. With this in mind, organizations must develop a Shift- allocation proposal based on multiple criteria. The criteria must be validated through simulation techniques that permit optimizing two performance metrics: waiting times and costs.
