About Maid Brigade of Rockville

Many new customers are concerned and inquire about the well-being of our cleaning staff. It warms our hearts to know that you are taking time to read about our crews who mean so much to us. And we know that our efforts are making a positive impact. We are delighted to share our commitment to the welfare of our cleaning staff that goes beyond the basics.

Here are some highlights of the benefits we offer:

• Competitive Wage: Our cleaning staff earns a significant rate for their hard work. We ensure they receive a competitive wage, making sure they meet mandatory minimum and overtime wages. This is a distinction from some cleaning services that designate staff as “contract workers” to evade responsibilities. We categorize our cleaning staff as employees, taking full responsibility for compliance with DOL wage requirements and covering their worker’s compensation.
• Annual Raises: Raises are a vital part of our commitment and are done each year when we review the customer rates and assess price increases as needed.
• Bonuses: In recognition of their outstanding efforts, our cleaning staff receives a year-end bonus as a token of appreciation. In addition to the year-end bonus, we provide another bonus in May, recognizing and appreciating our cleaning staff’s efforts twice a year.
• 401k Program with Company Match: To support their long-term financial goals, we provide a robust 401k program that includes a company match.
• Paid Holiday, Sick, and Vacation Time Off: Our cleaning staff enjoys the benefits of paid time off during holidays, for sickness, plus additional time for well-deserved vacations.
• Healthcare Coverage: We do provide health insurance, which our staff can elect, although many choose to take advantage of the reduced family rates available through the Obamacare ACA program. We also offer access to reduced dental and vision insurance, along with STD and LTD insurance at no cost to them.
• Employee Appreciation Day: We host an Employee Appreciation Day over the summer, where our staff can bring their families, showing our gratitude for their dedication.
• Supplied Resources: We provide all their necessary cleaning supplies, uniforms, and even cars for our staff to use at NO COST to them. Unlike some services that charge for these essentials or require employees to provide them, we prioritize removing such financial burdens from our team.

Your concern for our staff is well-placed. Unfortunately, there are many shady companies that sidestep laws to avoid extra costs, often at the expense of the employee. We want to assure you that we do not engage in such practices.

Our dedicated staff, some of whom have been with us for decades, is a testament to our commitment to creating a supportive and fulfilling work environment. While our dedication to fair wages and comprehensive benefits may make us more expensive than other services, we believe it’s a worthwhile investment in the well-being and satisfaction of our team.
