Why Djobzy Works Better for Trades Workers Than an Agency

Labour hire agencies in Canada add a markup of 25–50% above the worker’s agreed rate for every hour placed. As a trades worker, your effective market rate is higher than what the agency passes to you — because the employer is paying more than the worker receives.

On Djobzy, the connection is direct. You agree a rate with the employer. You receive 100% of that rate. There is no agency taking a percentage before it reaches you. Employer and client platform pricing applies on Djobzy’s side according to current pricing at djobzy.com — but that does not come out of your earnings.

In addition, every completed job builds your Career Passport. Your verified work history, skills, and employer ratings are visible to every local employer who finds you on the live map. A trades worker with 20 verified completed jobs and consistent strong ratings is far more visible — and trusted — than a new profile with no history. Each job you complete makes the next one easier to secure.
