🔍 1. Clearly Define Your Needs
Start by deciding exactly what kind of help you need:
Full-time or part-time maid
Cook or kitchen assistant
Driver for school/errands
Nanny or babysitter
Elderly caregiver
Writing a job description helps you communicate your expectations clearly to candidates.
📍 2. Use Trusted Hiring Platforms
Instead of relying on word-of-mouth (which can be risky), check out verified job platforms that list domestic staff:
✅ Dostyy.com a popular platform in Lahore with thousands of verified domestic staff profiles. You can filter candidates by skills, experience, salary, and area.
👉 Other options include OLX Pakistan and community Facebook groups.
🧑💼 3. Screen and Interview Carefully
Before hiring:
✔ Ask for original CNIC and valid ID
✔ Check previous work history and references
✔ Interview candidates personally ask about hygiene, punctuality, and tasks they are comfortable with
Tip: A short paid trial period (3–5 days) lets you assess performance and compatibility before finalizing.
🛡️ 4. Prioritize Safety & Verification
Safety should be your top priority:
🔹 Don’t hire anyone under age 18 — it’s illegal.
🔹 For added security, consider police verification at your nearest Police Khidmat Markaz.
🔹 Always verify identity and past work experience.
Many households suffer theft or loss when staff are not verified properly — so don’t skip this step!
💬 5. Set Clear Terms & Compensation
Before your staff starts:
✔ Agree on working hours, duties, and rest days
✔ Decide on salary up front — respect market rates
✔ Put expectations in writing (even a simple note)
In Lahore, salaries vary based on role and hours.
Tip: Treat your staff with respect and pay fair wages a happy worker stays longer.
🗣️ 6. Build a Positive Relationship
Creating a respectful and supportive environment goes a long way:
💡 Introduce new staff properly to your family
💡 Be polite and clear in your requests
💡 Acknowledge good performance it creates loyalty
A trustworthy helper becomes an asset to your home — not just an employee.
