ONLY HIRE VALIDATED INDIVIDUALS
h. Make sure your prospective helper has some sort of Personal Identification i.e. ID or Passport – do not believe or accept any excuses for not having such identification. By hiring someone without Identification you are placing not, only your belongings but the lives of those living on your premises in danger.
i. Make sure that they can provide contactable references
j. Always obtain an address or place of residence from your helper
k. Negotiate a salary / wage up front
l. Agree on terms of employment and sign a contract. This is to safeguard both your and your prospective employee
