Helper availability for Senior home help and companionship in St. Gallen

The city and postcode search returned 10 public Helper profiles for Senior home help and companionship around St. Gallen.

What Helpers are paid in SG

SG has no cantonal minimum wage for household work. The federal standard contract for domestic work (NAV Hauswirtschaft) sets the minimum from an average of 5 hours a week for the same household; it covers household work, not childcare as the main task. Helpers set their own rate, never below Helpore's own floor of CHF 24.55 an hour. The booking flow uses the entered job and Helper details to calculate the applicable floor for Senior home help and companionship in St. Gallen.

Your household remains the legal employer and confirms the employment details. With Helpore Admin, Helpore carries out the administrative steps under your signed power of attorney; see the compliance guide for the full picture.

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.

St. Gallen is the centre of eastern Switzerland, with hilly routes across Rotmonten, St. Fiden and Bruggen and links to Gossau, Wittenbach and Rorschach. Describe stairs, shopping loads and the exact service address when searching for non-medical support.

Helpers offer everyday support, not nursing; nursing stays with Spitex St. Gallen. In the canton of St. Gallen the federal minimums for domestic work of CHF 20.35 to CHF 24.55 apply; the booking flow calculates the floor from the entered details. VBSG buses and the S-Bahn connect the city with Gossau, Wittenbach and Rorschach, but transport links do not prove Helper coverage. Herisau belongs to Appenzell Ausserrhoden, where the federal minimums also apply.

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.
