These additional employee-related expenses cost us about 12% above and beyond the wage that you are paid. We pay twice a month. So, for example, if you are paid $20/hour, you cost us $22.40/hour. You will likely receive less than $20/hour as you will pay income taxes as well as half of your social security and other payroll expenses, as the law requires. We do not pay for vacation or sick days, or holidays, or for health-care insurance. - We do not pay workers "under the table" or "cash" - You can expect that this hourly wage will apply to the next year or two (don't expect a raise in six months) - We pay workers on an hourly basis, not on a "project basis" - Please do not apply to this ad if you will likely quit in a few weeks or months; we hope that our work relationship lasts for the longer term Employee or Contractor? If hired, you will become a part-time employee unless you satisfy the legal requirements of becoming an independent contractor (license, your own worker's compensation insurance, your own tools, etc.). Because the State of California has become more rigorous with regard to independent contractors, we are always "by the book" and hire and pay people according to the law. U.S. work authorization and documentation are required for both classifications. We will run a background check. To Apply Please feel free to call, text or email me. We look forward to hearing from you! Raquel
