Hiring trustworthy cleaners, gardeners, or other service providers for your home is crucial to ensure a safe and reliable environment. Homeowners have been urged to vet anyone working on their property as it is these workers who form the first vital line of defence in the fight against crime.
SAFETY MEASURES:
Ask for Recommendations:
Seek recommendations from friends, family, or neighbours who have hired similar services. o Personal referrals can be valuable in finding trustworthy individuals.
Check Reviews and Ratings:
Look for online reviews and ratings on websites or platforms dedicated to service providers.
This can give you insights into the experiences of other homeowners with a particular service.
Verify Credentials:
Ask for and verify relevant credentials, such as licenses, certifications, or insurance.
This is especially important for services that involve potential risks or liabilities.
Interview Candidates:
Conduct interviews with potential candidates to discuss your expectations, their experience, and their approach to the job.
This can help you gauge their professionalism and communication skills.
Request References:
Ask for references from previous clients. o Contacting these references can provide firsthand information about the candidate's work ethic and reliability.
Background Checks:
Consider conducting background checks to ensure the candidates have a clean record.
Start with a criminal record check which can be obtained through the SAPS, with the potential employee or contractor’s consent.
This can be particularly important for services that involve access to your home.
Clarify Terms and Expectations:
Communicate your expectations, including the scope of work, frequency, and any specific requirements you may have.
Make sure both parties are on the same page before starting the job.
Get a Written Agreement:
Have a written agreement or contract that outlines the terms of the service, including payment details, duration, and any specific conditions.
This helps prevent misunderstandings later on.
Start with a Trial Period:
Consider starting with a trial period or a small project to assess the candidate's performance before committing to a long-term arrangement.
Trust Your Instincts:
Trust your instincts if something doesn't feel right or you have concerns.
Feeling comfortable and confident with the individuals you bring into your home is essential.
Regularly Evaluate Performance:
Regularly assess the performance of the hired individuals and provide feedback.
Open communication helps maintain a positive working relationship.
Remember that building a relationship with trustworthy service providers takes time, and it's essential to be diligent in the hiring process to ensure the safety and security of your home.
Although thorough vetting might seem to be a time-consuming effort, many cases of break-ins and house robberies occur as a result of inside information being shared with criminals.
It is, therefore, critical to appoint people whom you can trust with your own life and the lives of your family.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.
STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
