Availability-aware search

Search ranking considers service fit, area coverage, visible availability, profile quality and transparent pricing for Senior home help and companionship.

Swiss employment administration support

If household employment applies, the household remains the legal employer. Under its signed power of attorney, Helpore supports the defined work for contracts, payroll records, insurance coordination, tax records and payment evidence.

For an older parent at home in Champel, Eaux-Vives, Carouge, Cologny, Chêne-Bougeries or Collonge-Bellerive, Geneva's own contract for domestic work names help with daily life. Use the language filter and compare what each profile says about errands, meals and company.

Helpers offer everyday support, not nursing; nursing and medical care stay with home care services or qualified professionals. Geneva does not use the federal standard contract for domestic work: its own contract, the CTT-EDom, names the care of older people in a private household in its scope, and Geneva's minimum wage of CHF 24.59 an hour applies. A cross-border Helper with a valid G permit is owed the Geneva rate in a Geneva home; a profile can show the recorded permit status. Mention stairs, lifts and shopping loads when describing the job, and enter the exact address to see matching profiles.

Local questions about Senior home help and companionship in Geneva

May a Helper in Geneva also take on nursing tasks?

No. Helpers support with the household, shopping, cooking, accompaniment and company. Medical and nursing care belong to home care services or a qualified nurse; the two forms of support can be arranged separately.

Does the Geneva minimum wage apply if my parents live in Carouge or Cologny?

Yes. Carouge, Cologny, Chêne-Bougeries and Collonge-Bellerive are in the canton of Geneva, where the minimum wage of CHF 24.59 an hour applies to household work, the care of older people included. The rule follows the address where the work is done, not where the Helper or the family lives.

Before the first visit

Helpore Flex is coming soon. This is how a first visit works once it opens.

What if I will not be at home?

Once Flex opens, the request asks how your Helper gets in: you are home, the name on the bell, a door code, a key with a neighbour, a key box or another way, with a short note. The access details you give in the request are shared with your Helper for the visit. Each Helper's profile also says whether they accept a key to the home.

What if I do not have the supplies?

Where it matters for a service, the Helper's profile says who brings the supplies: the Helper brings the required supplies or equipment, or the household provides them. Some profiles also list extras for a service. If the household provides them, have the products and equipment ready before the first visit.

What is the shortest visit?

Each Helper can set the shortest visit they take for each service; where they do, their profile shows it as the minimum beside that service. A request shorter than the Helper's minimum is refused.

What if the visit ends early?

Once Flex opens, each visit has an agreed length, and the price is set for that length. Finishing early does not automatically lower the price. If you ask your Helper to leave while they are available to work, the agreed wage generally remains due. If your Helper leaves early without your agreement, only the hours actually worked are owed (Art. 322 CO); you and your Helper settle them between you, as employer and employee. If you need help with the record of the visit, write to Helpore. The same applies to a single visit and to regular visits.
