  • WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LIVE IN DOMESTIC STAFF AND A LIVE-OUT DOMESTIC STAFF ?

    a) Live-in workers are those who reside on full time basis within the premises of the employer. Live in workers are usually more convenient for employers because they do not arrive late to work and are easily reachable any time of the day. For workers, being a live-in staff also helps you save money for personal plans, your education , personal projects, other plans and ambitions, easier and faster. Saving money is faster as feeding, accommodation and transportation is eliminated.
    b) Live-out workers are those who come from their homes daily . Most come from their homes by 7:00am everyday and close in the evenings around 6pm back to their individual houses.
    People who do not like much interference or the presence of third parties in their houses especially during resting hours in the evening; usually prefer Live out workers.
    This is mostly ideal for employers or families who do not want workers presence in their houses during quiet hours in the evening. Employers such as singles who need workers for only Saturday cleaning or few days per week., employers without kids, employers with small families, families with grown up kids or people who do not want workers on a full time full-time
