What Helpers are paid in ZH
ZH has no separate cantonal minimum wage for household work, so the federal Swiss household-employment minimum (NAV Hauswirtschaft) sets the floor. The booking flow uses the entered job and Helper details to calculate the applicable floor for Senior home help and companionship in Zurich.
Your household remains the legal employer and confirms the employment details. With Helpore Admin, Helpore carries out the administrative steps under your signed authorization; see the compliance guide for the full picture.

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 authorization, Helpore supports the defined work for contracts, payroll records, insurance coordination, tax records and payment evidence.
Helpers offer everyday support, not nursing; nursing stays with Spitex Zürich. In the canton of Zurich 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. The ZVV connects Schwamendingen, Altstetten and Oerlikon, but a Helper's actual service area depends on the exact address.
Local questions about Senior home help and companionship in Zurich
What is the difference between a Helper and Spitex in Zurich?
Spitex provides nursing and medical services and may bill health insurance. A Helper offers non-medical household, shopping, cooking, accompaniment and company services. These can complement each other, but they remain separate arrangements.
Can a Helper in Zurich come several times a week?
You can request recurring visits, for example three times a week for two hours. Acceptance, continuity and schedule changes depend on the chosen Helper's availability.

Before the first visit
Helpore Flex opens only once its Swiss licences are in hand. 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.
