Sound Safety & Call Clarity Headsets are an essential tool within any job role where you receive or make calls. With Jabra devices you can experience consistently superior call clarity. Incorporating optimum acoustic technology, all headsets feature PeakStop™ technology to protect users hearing from sudden acoustic shocks above 118 dB SPL.
The Jabra headset portfolio includes noise-cancelling microphones as standard, which reduce the background noise to ensure less repetition on calls, leading to faster call wrap-up and increase customer satisfaction.

Durability and Ergonomics Choosing a Jabra audio device provides you with reliability. Jabra headsets have a robust build quality and therefore withstand all-day regular use, ensuring less downtime due to breakages and repairs. Every Jabra product is subject to extensive testing pre-launch in our world-class research labs, to ensure that our headsets adhere to the standards demanded of them.
Headsets provide a comfortable way to talk on the telephone. With 8 out of 10 employees spending more than 2 hours per day on the phone*, comfort is key. A headset eliminates any strain caused by cradling a handset between the neck and shoulder. With 57% of people surveyed confirming that have experienced back, neck or shoulder problems at work*, headsets are the obvious answer to dramatically reducing the strain that using a handset puts on an employee’s body. Supporting this, Jabra headsets are manufactured for all-day wear, ensuring comfort for all job roles, including telephone-intense ones.
Jabra headsets are also lightweight and ergonomic for maximum comfort. Featuring a range of wearing styles for personalisation, there is a Jabra headset to match the needs of any user. |

Hands-free Productivity and Efficiency Hands-free working is not only liberating for the employee but financially beneficial for the employer. When is taking a call via a headset you have both hands free to do other things, such as type documents, make notes or retrieve files. This way of working is much more ‘task-centric’ rather than ‘phone-centric’, therefore leading to increased productivity. Studies support this productive way of working as they show that 85% of users work more effectively when using a Jabra headset.*
As the use of headsets provides increased efficiency and personal comfort, users feel more motivated and service-minded during your day. This translates into increased job satisfaction, which can decrease staff turnover and increase company profitability. |
