Comparison
There are of course other options for you in terms of how you work - privately, or choosing an employed position elsewhere. However, we hope that reading the points below help to clarify the Pros and Cons of each - and that you will see how fantastic it is to work with us at Time For You!
Working Privately:
Pro's
- You control when you take on jobs and build up your diary to fit in with your life
- You control where you take on jobs so they are well located and reduce travelling time and costs
- You can stop with a Client if you aren't well suited
- You set your hourly rate and payment terms
Con's
- You need to provide your own insurance cover
- You need to be proactive and work to build your client base through advertising/word of mouth etc
- You need to deal directly with the Client if you encounter any issues
- If you go away, your Clients are left without cover, which is inconsistent and your Client may start to look elsewhere to get a more consistent set up, especially if they are very dependent on a regular clean
Being employed by an agency:
Pro's
- You have the support of other people/your employers if issues were to arise
- You have your employer to help manage your Clients
- You don't need to find the work, it is all set up for you
- If you have regular clients, your employer should be able to place cover when you are away/ill so the clients receive a consistent service and don't consider looking elsewhere if you can't attend
- Products and equipment will be supplied either by the Clients or your employer
Con's
- You will likely be on a lower hourly rate/minimum wage
- You will likely be paid monthly
- Your employer could send you to jobs that are not local so you have long travelling times
- You may not be placed into a regular schedule/with the same Clients and therefore won’t settle into a routine, or get to know Clients and/or their houses and preferences
- You will not have as much choice as working independently in terms of jobs you take on
- You may be placed with a team of Cleaners rather than being able to work independently
Being self employed with TFY:
Pro's
- We are there to support, you choose the Clients you take on so are in control of your diary and locations, we provide insurance, we find and set up all the work for you, we help manage and provide cover for your cleans, you are on a competitive hourly rate and get paid within 24hrs of the clean.
- Every Pro listed in both of the above scenarios are also true if you are a self-employed cleaner with TFY.
- Every Con is not applicable to Time For You’s set up. We ensure the opposite!
Con's
- None! So join us today!
So what is stopping you? All the pro's, none of the con's. Come and join us!
