Hire Housekeepers and Homemakers Directly Using ICONNEL's Placement Services
Placement Services Average Costs
Your total cost varies because you negotiate the wages directly with your potential employee and the agency fee is calculated based on 10% of the mutually agreed-upon wage rate. The total price range (including agency fees), based on our observation is as follows:
Live-in: $143-$209 per day, plus room and board.
Hourly: $18.70-$22 per hour, minimum 4 hours per day, 5 days per week.

Both rates include agency fees calculated at 10% of the rate listed above. The employment arrangement with your candidate is considered “hire at will”, so you only pay for what they work. However, the minimum fees for the agency is based on 4 weeks of employment. Therefore, if you terminate services with your employee, we can provide you an alternate candidate for consideration, but if you terminate services with the agency completely within the first 4 weeks, we can only credit the unused portion of the agency fees, but not refund them. Fees are billed perpetually on a weekly basis after the 4th week in the event that you continue services with us.
-
The fee covers a continuous employment guarantee by ICONNEL for as long as assistance is required.

Service can be stopped any time and continued again depending on client’s changing needs.
