What We Mean by "Home Workforce"

South Africa’s homes employ over a million people, yet most have no access to proper systems.

AskMandla brings structure and fairness to the home workforce.

We handle the same essentials every business does: contracts, payslips, leave and compliance, just made easier, faster and kinder.

With AskMandla

Clarity, dignity, and financial empowerment.

You already care. We help you turn that care into action. AskMandla gives you a structured, respectful way to employ your nanny, cleaner, gardener, or helper with tools that are simple, legal, and fair.

✅ A fair, structured way to employ someone. Without the admin – all on WhatsApp.

 

✅ Clear agreement from day one

Automated contracts that reflects the real job: role, hours, pay, leave, and overtime. Signed digitally and stored for both of you.

✅ Payslips that match reality

A professional payslip every month, based on what was actually paid. Your worker gets transparency, you get a proper record.

✅ UIF handled properly

UIF registration and monthly admin supported so it’s done consistently and correctly (and not “we’ll do it later”).

✅ Leave that’s tracked, not argued about

Let WhatsApp conversations handle the admin of leave and balances.

✅ Everything kept in one place

Contracts, payslips, leave records, and UIF history stored securely so there’s a paper trail when you need it.

✅ Support when life happens

Simple WhatsApp guidance for the messy moments — pay changes, leave disputes, misunderstandings, discipline, or “what’s fair here?”

⏱ About a few minutes a month

Because the system does the heavy lifting for only R49 per month.

Doing Domestic HR On Your Own

Maybe you already try your best and you are the star employer. 

But doing it on your own remains time-consuming and an admin headache. 

⚠️ Usually fine… until it isn’t

 

⚠️ Verbal agreements become confusion

“Handshake” arrangements blur over time — especially when pay changes, leave is taken, or expectations shift.

⚠️ Payslips become a mission

Most people skip them, or do them inconsistently. That’s where mistrust starts: “what exactly was deducted?” “how was this calculated?”

⚠️ UIF gets delayed or forgotten

Not because you don’t care — because the admin is annoying and easy to postpone.

⚠️ Leave tracking lives in your head

A notebook, WhatsApps, or a spreadsheet… until you can’t remember what’s been used and what’s still owed.

⚠️ No paper trail when you need one

If there’s a disagreement or a claim, it’s hard to prove what was agreed and what was paid.

⚠️ Unnecessary risk

Small mistakes can snowball into disputes, back-pay, or costly CCMA issues.

⏱ Hours of admin over time

Plus the mental load of remembering everything.
