Frequently asked questions

How does pricing work?

Sidekicker charges a service fee on top of the hourly rate to the worker, superannuation and other statutory charges. Pricing is clearly stated before you submit your booking request.If you have large or recurring needs we can offer custom pricing. We often find we can save our customers up to 30% compared to traditional temporary staffing agencies.

How do you pre-screen staff?

All temporary staff are screened by our specialist onboarding team and must create a detailed profile listing their experience and any certifications. Unlike a traditional temporary staffing agency you are able to see all of this information before accepting them onto your premise.

Can you work with large complex workforces?

Yes! Sidekicker works with some of the largest businesses in the industry. We can customise our delivery and platform to suit your needs whether it be for 20 Sidekicks or 200.
