STATEMENT UNDER OATH OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND
PRINCIPAL FINANCIAL OFFICER REGARDING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES
RELATING TO EXCHANGE ACT FILINGS

I, James F. Orr, principal executive officer, state and attest that:

(1)      To the best of my knowledge,  based upon a review of the covered
         reports of Convergys  Corporation,  and, except as corrected or
         supplemented in a subsequent covered report:

         o    no covered report contained an untrue statement of a material fact
              as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case
              of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of the
              date on which it was filed); and

         o    no covered report omitted to state a material fact necessary to
              make the statements in the covered report, in light of the
              circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of the
              end of the period covered by such report (or in the case of a
              report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of the date
              on which it was filed).

(2)      I have reviewed the contents of this statement with the Company's audit
         committee.

(3)      In this statement under oath, each of the following, if filed on or
         before the date of this statement, is a "covered report":

         o    The Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
              2001 filed with the Commission of Convergys Corporation;

         o    all reports on Form 10-Q, all reports on Form 8-K and all
              definitive proxy materials of Convergys Corporation filed with the
              Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K identified
              above; and

         o    any amendments to any of the foregoing.


/s/ James F. Orr                               Subscribed and sworn to before me
