I ACCEPT THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND PRIVACY POLICY

This form collects information so we can add you to our list of Treasures. Check our Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy to see how we protect and manage your data.

Consent to the Code of Conduct*

I agree to the Treasures Code of Conduct

Treasures Code of Conduct.

For Service Providers (hereby referred to as “Treasures”) Representing Local Treasures

Thank you for your interest in being a Local 'Treasure'.

As a representative of Local Treasures we require all Treasures to sign and agree to the following code of conduct prior to being allocated jobs via our UK websites, Apps and booking system (hereby known as the ‘Platform’) including the sites www.localtreasures.me, www.becomeatreasure.me, www.findatreasure.uk, www.findatreasure.me, www.local-treasures.co.uk, www.elty.work and the Local Treasures App.

Although you will be self employed as a Treasure, we still require you to follow this code and we consider it your responsibility to do so when you undertake work for your customers

Our expectation of you as a Local Treasure is to follow these terms, which we strive to ensure are clear and well-defined. However, if for any reason, any are deemed to be unclear it is your responsibility as a Treasure to request further clarification and support in relation to any of these statements by contacting head office at hello@localtreasures.me

Local Treasures expect and require you as a Treasure to conduct business with integrity, high ethical standards, and in compliance with the law. Treasures must not engage in any unlawful activity whilst conducting business sourced through the Local Treasures platform.

The Company, Local Treasures Limited and its franchise partners reserves the right to remove any Treasures from the “Platform” if they are found to purposefully or, upon discovery of noncompliance, fail to comply with these terms.

Local Treasures reserve the right to amend or modify this Code of Conduct at any time.

1. Professional Conduct

1.1 Punctuality: Arrive at each job on time, ready to work. Notify the office immediately if delays are expected.

1.2 Cancellations/changes: Please give 24 hours notice to the customer or your Local Treasures office if you need to cancel or re-arrange a scheduled visit. This helps Local Treasures meet customer expectations and find solutions for Treasures should alternative arrangements be required. Failure to do so could result in your removal from the Local Treasures platform.

1.3 Appearance: Wear clean, professional attire with any required uniform. Maintain a tidy and presentable appearance.

1.4 Respect: Treat all customers, colleagues, and property with care, courtesy, and professionalism.

2. Work Standards

2.1 Quality: Perform tasks to the highest standard. Ensure all agreed-upon work is completed efficiently and thoroughly.

2.2 Communication: If there are challenges or concerns, inform the office immediately – do not make decisions directly with the client.

2.3 Client Instructions: Follow the agreed-upon job scope. Do not accept or amend tasks unless approved through the office.

2.4 Client Estimate requests: All estimates must be raised within the platform, before final pricing can be agreed upon with the Customer.

3. Integrity and Ethics

3.1 Honesty: Never take or misuse items from a client's property. Report any accidental damage or concerns immediately.

3.2 Confidentiality: Respect client privacy. Do not discuss personal details, leave paperwork on-site, or share client information for purposes other than completing the job.

Commission
As background, Local Treasures does not charge you to become a Treasure. Most flexible work platforms will charge a joining fee. We do charge a commission on each job you undertake. This commission is our income and is used by us to stay in business. The commission we charge pays, among other things for:

Marketing to find you new customers

Insurance so you are covered doing your Local Treasures work

Invoicing and payment automation, so we can process and collect payments on your behalf

Technology to ensure you get to the right job at the right time

Bank fees so you can be paid in a timely manner after the job has been completed.

As you can see our commission is a vital part of Local Treasures and the way we do business and support you as a Treasure.

This is the reason we have the following policy within our code of conduct.

4. Poaching policy

4.1 Do not accept direct work offers from clients or attempt to bypass Local Treasures. All bookings, amendments, or new tasks must be coordinated through the office. Any non compliance to this term can incur a lost income fee payable by the Treasure of up to £200.

4.2 If a customer who you previously performed work for as a Local Treasure asks you to return to undertake another job, this customer is a Local Treasures customer and should be put through as a Local Treasures job. Failure to notify us of this additional work will mean you and the customer are no longer insured through us and you will no longer be able to work through our platform.

4.3 If, whilst working as a Local Treasure, a customer or an acquaintance of that customer asks you to undertake work for them, this customer has been recruited whilst you are working for Local Treasures and should be viewed as a Local Treasures job.

4.4 If a customer requests a different service than the one you provide for them, you will notify Local Treasures so we will be able to provide them with a new Treasure to fulfill that work. This keeps more work in the Local Treasures system which you will benefit from.

Failure to comply with this policy means we will have to remove you from our platform and you will not receive any new work through Local Treasures.

5. Health, Safety, and Security

5.1 Work Safely: Use appropriate tools and follow health and safety protocols.

5.2 Property Care: Handle all client property with care. Avoid using harsh chemicals or materials unless approved.

5.3 Security: Lock doors and windows as needed and ensure the premises are secure after completing the job.

6. Reporting and Accountability

6.1 Documentation: Update the relevant timesheets within the Local Treasures platform within 24hrs of job completion.

6.2 Reporting: Let the office know if any issues were encountered during the job.

6.3 Feedback: Accept constructive feedback graciously and aim for continuous improvement.

6.4 Professional Boundaries: Maintain appropriate, friendly, but professional relationships with clients.

6.5 Notification: Notify the office immediately if for any reason a criminal conviction or activity may affect the results of previously gained Criminal Reference Checks

7. Subcontracting Responsibilities

7.1 Where approved in advance by the Customer, you are not obligated to personally perform the services. However, any assistants, helpers, or subcontractors must:
Be fully registered, oriented, and verified through Local Treasures
Adhere to this Code of Conduct at all times

7.2 You remain fully responsible for their acts, omissions, and any applicable legal requirements such as compensation and tax withholdings. Non-compliance with this clause may result in removal from the platform.

8. Client Information and Confidentiality

8.1 Treasures confirm that any client information received, which is not public domain, will only be used for the delivery of the agreed work. This information must not be shared, discussed, or used for any other purpose.
