NEW YORK, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America (Guardian) has once again been recognized by J.D. Power, the standard bearer in evaluating and certifying companies for outstanding customer service.

As part of J.D. Power's Certified Customer Service Program, the company recognized the high customer satisfaction performance of Guardian's Individual Life Contact Center—which has been certified by J.D. Power for the past seven years. With this year's certification, Guardian has collectively earned J.D. Power recognition for 14 consecutive years.

"Providing exceptional customer service is at the heart of our mission to inspire well-being," said Michael Ferik, Head of Individual Markets at Guardian. "Being recognized by J.D. Power is emblematic of our commitment to our customers. I'm incredibly proud of our customer service team and their focus on going above and beyond for our customers in every interaction."

J.D. Power is a global leader in consumer insights and data analytics. Its Certified Customer Service Program employs a rigorous process to determine certification. J.D. Power uses a comprehensive survey that measures customer satisfaction, operational excellence, loyalty, and advocacy for the assisted phone channel and the interactive voice response (IVR) routing. J.D. Power also conducts staff interviews, an onsite evaluation, and compares operations to dozens of established best practices across more than 20 categories that drive operational excellence and customer satisfaction. Companies must meet a cross-industry-derived customer satisfaction benchmark for excellence and be compliant with the operational evaluation standards in order to earn certification.
