How do you verify that a freelancer is in good legal standing (due diligence)?
Our policy
In order for freelancers to get paid for the work they do on Malt, they must provide specific legal documents that allow us (and our payment partners) to do the necessary due diligence to verify that they are currently in good legal standing. This is also done to protect you from falling prey to local laws and regulations concerning undeclared work.
The documents we collect
We collect all documents related to a freelancer’s professional (legal) status.
We also require all freelancers on Malt to sign our General Terms and Conditions of Use, which specify that freelancers are independent workers and not employees of either Malt or your company.
