DOMESTIC REFERRAL AGENCY
WORKING TOGETHER
Owners and operators of Domestic Referral Agencies have been involved in serving on both the California Small Business Employer Advisory Committee (SBEAC) and the Private Care Association (PCA), a national in-home care registry association. Since 1993, CCDRA Workshops have been presented throughout California, to inform Domestic Referral Agency owners and operators about the State Civil and Unemployment Codes, and other factors that regulate the Business Model, to encourage compliance with these laws.
THE BENEFITS OF BEING A DOMESTIC REFERRAL AGENCY
Legal
The Domestic Referral Agency business model is the only legal means to refer domestic workers to private homes in the state of California.
Consumers
It allows Consumer’s access to domestic services at reasonable rates.
Workers
Domestic Workers access jobs through the agency, giving them the freedom to arrange their own schedules and increase their earnings.
Business
The DRA model is a highly beneficial business model that encourages more small business owners to enter into the marketplace, boosting the economy.
Alternative
Consumers enjoy a cost-effective alternative to the increasing number of large-scale national businesses.
Underground Economy
DRA reporting requirements lead to the collection of income taxes and other financial obligations of registered workers, thereby mitigating the effects of the underground economy.
