The service fee rate can slide up or down depending on how many jobs you have loaded on Jobloads at the start of each job. Each job has its own pay rate.

Let’s see how this might work:

Natasha owns an orchard and hires one Jobstar to get her site ready for harvest and to supervise the pickers. She loads up the job. Before the job starts she duplicates the Harvest Supervisor job for next year too. Here’s a quick rundown of her 5 jobs on the platform. Each job has its own pay rate, duration, experience tier, and expectations required for the job.

• Job 1 = One Harvest Supervisor @ $23 per hour for 2 weeks in March 2020

• Job 2 = Ten Pickers @ $0.30 per kg for 2 weeks in March 2020

• Job 3 = One Winter Prune Supervisor @ $24 per hour for 4 weeks in June 2020

• Job 4 = One Winter Pruner on a piece rate @ $3.50 per tree for 3 and a half weeks in June 2020

• Job 5 = One Harvest Supervisor @ $23 per hour for 2 weeks in March 2021

When the Jobstar supervisor goes to start the job Natasha pays a 10% service fee on the hours they work as she has 5 jobs loaded on the platform.

The fee is then applied to the total labour hours worked by Jobstars, multiplied by the base pay rate you set for the job. We also accommodate for piece rates (bin, kg, tree) by calculating what the per hour rate would be.

Natasha’s winter pruning job is about to start. Here we have two examples to demonstrate piece rates vs hourly rates and how our service fee is applied:

• Job 3 = One Winter Prune Supervisor @ $24 per hour working 48 hours during their first week.

• Job 4 = One Winter Pruner @ $3.50 per tree who prunes 250 trees and works a total of 40 hours during their first week. For piece rates Employers need to calculate a per hour wage rate to ensure adult minimum wage of $18.90 is being met.

The calculation will be ($3.50 x 250 trees or $875 in wages/40 hours) which equals an hourly rate of $21.82 per hour. This is the rate we would use to capture our service fee for the job. If the rate was lower than adult minimum wage of $18.90 then you would need to top up the Jobstar’s wage and we would apply our service fee to the minimum wage rate.

Here’s the Jobloads fee breakdown: Job 3 ($24 x 48 hours x 10% Service Fee) + Job 4 ($21.82 x 40 hours x 10% Service Fee).

Natasha pays Jobloads: Job 3 ($115.20) + Job 4 ($87.28) = $202.48 ex gst in Service Fees.

Our pricing difference.

You only pay Jobloads as Jobstars work a job. We invoice our customers weekly as the work is done. One of the key advantages with our pricing model is we only capture our service fee against a Jobstar’s base pay rate. Most labour-hire firms charge their service fees on base pay rates plus statutory oncosts including 8% Holiday Pay, 3% Employer KiwiSaver Contribution, and the ACC Earner’s Levy too. For a minimum wage worker that’s an additional $2.40 in extra costs you need to cover per worker per hour. We simply don’t need to apply our service fee to these extra costs on your business. So we don’t.
