Fresh Desk

Fresh Desk is one of those socially conscious companies. They boast they pay they are a living wage employer, only use eco-friendly cleaning products and are deeply into corporate social responsibility.

But as Stuff reports:

A commercial cleaning company that said it was was ‘testing the market’ by advertising a job with no pay has apologised and pulled the job advert.

Fresh Desk advertised an intern cleaning position in Wellington on Seek NZ. The only catch was the job applicant would be working for free, with the advertisement stating the role was a “voluntary position.”

“We are testing the market to see if there is any interest in voluntary cleaning,” it read.

The steaming hypocrites. They boast they are a living wage employer, and they’re trying to get people to clean for them for free on the basis of learning cleaning skills!
