Paying Your Workers Keep In House or Bookkeeper Have Admin Assistant Issue Payments Pay via or Keep Records of each worker if audited. Must be able to prove they were real workers and did real work. (Ask your lawyer for legal advice.)

How to set Pricing for Workers How much should they make per hour? Calculate Piece Work Rate so they earn that amount. Assign Task that covers equivalent of 5-10 hours of work.

Project Based Pricing Example If owner can do at rate of 10 per hour, budget for workers at 5 per hour. PH rate is approx $2.50 per hour for entry level work. Divide $2.50 by 5 per hour. Piece work rate is $.50 per unit of work for working at the slowest acceptable rate.
