Legal
Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of the HardHats website and our staffing services. By booking a call, submitting a request, or accepting a placement, you agree to them.
1. Our services
HardHats Staffing LLC sources, screens, and places skilled and industrial workers with employers. We present vetted candidates; the employer makes the final hiring decision and is responsible for onboarding, supervision, and compliance once a worker starts.
2. Placement fees
Unless agreed otherwise in writing, fees are charged on placement — there is no retainer and no upfront cost. A flat fee becomes due when a candidate we introduce accepts an offer and begins work. Specific fee amounts are confirmed for each role before you commit.
3. Replacement guarantee
Every placement is backed by a replacement guarantee. If a placed worker leaves or is let go for cause within the agreed guarantee window, we will run the replacement search again at no additional placement fee, provided your account is in good standing and the fee for the original placement has been paid.
4. Your responsibilities
- Provide accurate role requirements, pay, and timeline details.
- Comply with all applicable employment, safety, and labor laws for workers you hire.
- Not circumvent HardHats by hiring an introduced candidate outside the terms of our agreement.
5. Payment terms
Invoices are payable within the period stated on the invoice. Late balances may accrue interest at the maximum rate permitted by law. You are responsible for any taxes associated with our services, excluding taxes on our income.
6. Disclaimers
We screen candidates with care, but we do not guarantee any candidate's performance, conduct, or continued employment beyond the replacement guarantee. Our services are provided “as is” to the fullest extent permitted by law.
7. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, HardHats' total liability arising from a placement is limited to the placement fee paid for that role. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the state in which HardHats Staffing LLC is organized, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
