SweepSouth was founded on the basis of dignified work for fair pay for SweepStars (independent contractors). The safety and protection of SweepStars is at the core of our business. We have a number of internal initiatives in place:
- The verification of payment details (no cash payments)
- A two-way rating system
- Follow up on instances where SweepStars rate clients low
- All SweepStars manage their own schedules - deciding when and where they offer their services
Communication channels
- A dedicated SweepStar support team
- An emergency line
- A quick-response messaging platform
- SweepStar communication groups (allowing SweepStars to talk and share with each other)
Partnerships:
- The Warrior Project - access to information & resources around domestic violence
- Life and disability cover
- Encouragment to install Namola - allows users to request emergency assistance and receive emergency response
