What is the difference between Eco Cleaning Systems and a cleaning lady or housekeeper?
Eco Cleaning Systems hires only background checked employees and then we train them in green cleaning. We manage all the details of their employment, including filing all required state and federal paperwork and paying taxes on all our employees. We are also bonded and insured, so you are protected against theft, accidental breakage or accidents inside your home. If you hire an independent cleaning person, there are some important requirements to be aware of. According to the IRS, if you hire someone to do household work and if you control not only what work is done, but how it is done, you are considered to have a household employee. If you pay your cleaning lady or housekeeper in cash or off-the-books, you are then liable for unpaid taxes.
