When you add a contractor as your Trusted Contact, we will send them an email invitation for onboarding in Worksome. Once your Trusted Contact has created their account, you’ll be able to offer them a contract - we’ll guide you through this process below. 🎉
​
First, go to the Trusted contacts page.
​

Now you’ll see a list of all your trusted contacts and their status (active, invited or applied).
​
💡 NOTE: You can only hire active contacts (contacts that have logged into Worksome).

1) Use the search function and find the worker you want to hire and select Offer job from the drop-down menu.

2) Contact the worker by using an existing job post or creating a new brief.
​
💡 NOTE: You can search by tag, name or email.

You’ll be able to select one of the jobs you have created.
​
💡 NOTE: The job needs to have a specified rate in order for you to be able to quick-hire a trusted contact.

Once you have chosen the job and selected whether you want to attribute a recruiter to the hire, simply select Offer job which will take you to your conversation with the Trusted Contact. The contract is already created and just needs a final acceptance from the worker.

You will be able to create a short job brief directly on the page and then select Offer job.

Please note:

If you engage Australian sole traders via Worksome, we are obligated to charge your the worker's Superannuation fees on top of your invoices. As of March 2023, the Superannuation contribution is 10.5% of the gross total of the freelancer's bill.

When creating a job for a sole trader, please make sure that the job rate is exclusive of Superannuation, or you will be charged twice.

Once your external worker had created a bill, and you have approved it, Worksome will add the Superannuation fee on top of your invoice as a separate line item.

3) Review the contract

This is the page you'll get to once you have clicked Offer job.

Everything's done! 🚀 Your Trusted Contact will have received an email with the contract to accept. You can access the contract details and continue the conversation with the worker at any time.
