The Task Poster must also have awarded the job to a 5 star rated Task Doer for this to be valid. Employs.com.au will evaluate every Task Guarantee request and Employs.com.au makes the final decision on whether a Task Poster will be wholly or partly refunded for their task, depending on the specific circumstances of each individual task situation. Employs.com.au charges a fee of AU$9 to investigate task complaints, paid for by the Task Poster, before a determination is made by Employs.com.au. Task Guarantees are offered to individuals posting tasks and are not offered to businesses posting tasks. If Employs.com.au determines a business to be at fault for an unsatisfactory task completion, the business and not Employs.com.au is required to refund the Task Poster. Special Promotional Tasks, like the $15 House Cleaning Promo, do not come with the Task Guarantee.

PROMOTIONAL TASKS

The House Cleaning Promotional Task is for a four bedroom house or smaller. It includes cleaning floors, dusting and cleaning one bathroom and one kitchen. Extra rooms can be negotiated with the Task Doer on the day. The residence must be in a reasonable condition and only general cleaning of dirt, dust and grime etc can be expected of the Task Doer. For an office, it must be less than 250m2. Two toilets and a kitchen will be cleaned, as well as dusting and floors. Extra tasks can be negotiated. The Lawn Mowing Promotional Task refers to standard residential blocks under 900m2. Lawns must be in reasonable shape.

Both these tasks require the Task Poster to provide the equipment such as cloths, vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers etc.
