Ethical Feedback Guidelines
Providing feedback is a powerful responsibility. Your reviews directly impact the livelihoods of domestic workers and the decisions of other homemakers.
When providing feedback:
- Be truthful - Share your authentic experience without exaggeration
- Be specific - Focus on observable actions and behaviors
- Be fair - Consider circumstances and context before rating
- Be constructive - Highlight both strengths and areas for improvement
- Be respectful - Avoid derogatory language or personal attacks
Remember that good feedback:
- Helps domestic workers understand how to improve
- Assists other homemakers in making informed decisions
- Contributes to building a more transparent community
- Elevates the standards of domestic work
We reserve the right to moderate content that doesn't meet our community standards. Together, we can create a platform that benefits everyone through honesty, fairness, and respect.
