This document advocates bringing call center jobs back to Long Island from offshore locations. It notes that over 350,000 call center jobs have been lost in the last 10 years as companies have moved operations overseas. The document proposes that Long Island is well-suited for call centers due to available labor, office space, and incentives that could be offered like tax reductions, grants, and discounts on real estate and utilities to attract companies. It encourages contacting local legislators to promote adopting such incentives to create call center jobs in Long Island.

1. BRING CALL CENTER JOBS
BACK TO LONG ISLAND
Did you call a U.S. based company today, get answered off-shore,
become frustrated due to the agent not being able to understand
you and vice versa and just hung up?
WE ARE 100% CERTAIN THAT AMERICANS WANT THEIR TELEPHONE CALLS TO
U.S. CORPORATIONS TO BE ANSWERED BY AMERICANS. WE HAVE LOST 350,000 CALL
CENTER JOBS IN THE LAST 10 YEARS TO OFF-SHORE CALL CENTERS. WE NEED TO MARKET
LONG ISLAND AS THE PERFECT PLACE TO BUILD A CALL CENTER.
We need our State, County and Town legislators
to develop incentives to attract the call
center industry here by offering:
• Training grants Why
• Real estate tax reductions • We have the labor pool
• Payroll tax reductions Students (27 Colleges & Universities)
• Health insurance reductions Retirees
