Code of Conduct
StartAJob connects employers and employees everywhere, whether they live in the same community or work a world apart.
We’ve built in features to protect both employers and employees, but our service also relies on transparency, communication, and trust. Our code of conduct requires every user to:
- Represent yourself and your work honestly
Deliver good work that is truly yours. We strictly enforce rules against plagiarism and copyright infringement. - Respond to questions and concerns
Promptly address any questions you receive about a job. Replying within 48 hours is a great guideline. - Keep communication professional
Stay focused on sharing information, defining clear expectations, and solving problems. Recognize that language differences can occasionally contribute to misunderstandings. - Honor your agreements
Deliver quality work that meets each job’s specifications. Pay the fees you agreed to once work is completed. - Release payments and refunds promptly
Approve all escrow payments as soon as work is completed or as soon as you’ve agreed to refund. - Accept mediation when necessary
StartAJob will help resolve any disputes. - Provide honest, constructive feedback
Our community depends on reviews of both employees and employers. Use this feedback to make decisions about the people you hire and the jobs you accept. - Protect yourself
Keep personal information—especially financial information—private and maintain basic online security practices.
Users who violate this code of conduct may find their accounts suspended or closed.
