Trust and Safety are really important concepts to us at Airtasker. If you have posted a task where a licensed tradesperson is required, it’s crucial that the Tasker has the right qualification.
We currently have a range of license badges that verify Tasker’s qualifications are valid and current. When a Tasker applies for a badge, their details are checked with our verifications providers. To learn more about badges, please see here.
Please keep in mind: that these badges are optional. A Tasker may not have a badge on their profile, but they may still be licensed. They also might have a license that we currently do not have a badge for.
The best way to know if someone is licensed is to sight the license itself. We recommend doing this before the task has started, by asking the Tasker for a photo of it after you've assigned them. When possible, we recommend confirming licensure when possible.
If you’re looking for more tips on how to know a Tasker is who they say they are, see our article here.
Not sure whether your task needs a licensed tradesperson? Check with the industry's regulatory body or your local county or state. Many industries and/or states have databases where you can search to confirm someone's license status
