1 A Guide to Mystery Shopping
2 This document will give you an introduction to Mystery Shopping and the role of the Mystery Shopper: What is Mystery Shopping? Mystery Shopping is a form of market research where individuals are trained to observe, experience and evaluate the customer service and engagement process of Nottinghamshire Police, What does a Mystery Shopper do? A Mystery Shopper acts as a customer and undertakes a series of agreed tasks, which monitor the quality and delivery of customer service. They then report back on their experiences in a detailed and objective way. For example, a Mystery Shopper may be asked to phone the 101 Nonemergency phone number and request information. They would have to monitor how long it took staff to answer, how they were greeted and how professionally their request has handled was the member of staff police helpful and informative? Or a Mystery Shopper may be asked to visit a Police Station to request information, check the opening hours are clearly displayed and that there is appropriate mobility access and parking. A Mystery Shopper may also be asked to attend local Neighbourhood Policing meetings to report on how the local priorities are delivered and to navigate the Nottinghamshire Police Website to look for information about their local area. The Mystery Shopper would then have to report back accurately and objectively by completing a questionnaire. What is the purpose of the Mystery Shopper research? The purpose of mystery shopper research is to provide information to the Commissioner to help him review the quality and delivery of policing in Nottinghamshire. This is intended to assist the organisation to focus on customer service improvements by providing them with information on the quality of their current service. How long will it take? We expect Volunteers to take 10 minutes to carry out each mystery shopper activity and 20 minutes to complete the questionnaire, making a total of 30 minutes to complete one Mystery Shopper project. (With the exception of Neighbourhood Policing Meetings.) We will agree specific times with each Volunteer when they would carry out their Mystery Shopper activity. 2
3 Will staff know that a Mystery Shopper activity is taking place? The Chief Constable will have been informed that the Commissioner intends to undertake mystery shopper research, but will not be told when or by whom. What skills are required? Excellent customer service skills. Reliable and committed to providing a regular service. Treat all people with dignity and respect. Able to work as part of a team. Good written and verbal communication skills. Excellent organisational skills. Ability to be discreet. Ability to work independently. Sensitive to the needs and confidentiality of individuals whom they may come into contact with as a result of their role. Personal Development We believe that the training, support and experience you receive working as a Mystery Shopper for the NOPCC will help you develop skills which could assist you in your future development, by improving communication skills and building confidence. Health & Safety Mystery Shoppers will conduct personal visits in pairs for safety reasons. Questionnaires The purpose of the questionnaire is to ensure a consistent approach by Mystery Shoppers. The questionnaire must be simple and easy to follow and be capable of accurately reflecting a range of responses. The questions should seek to establish if accepted good practice is being followed on a day to day basis. Confidentiality and Social Media Mystery Shoppers will be required to handle and deal with restricted and confidential information and will be required to adhere to social media and confidentiality guidelines. Mystery Shoppers will not discuss or share any information in connection with Nottinghamshire Police or the Office of the Police & Crime Commissioner on social media or social networking sites without prior permission. 3
