Creating Paid Work Agreements for Recovery Housing > Paid Work Agreements: House Managers/Resident Leaders

There is no set position description for a house manager, since each home may operate differently and have different goals and expectations. 

It is highly recommended that an organization consider the following factors and discuss them with an employment law expert before forming a relationship with any house managers:

  • The type of organization you run
  • The specific job duties performed by your house manager
  • How many hours your house managers work
  • Compensation for your house manager
  • The amount of freedom your house manager has to make decisions
