If you’re in the US, labor is dirt cheap these days so it might be worth looking into. If it’s not technical, you can pay people next to nothing. The real minimum wage has dropped a ton and as long as you don’t need a full time employee (you can always hire multiple part-time ones) you can hire people with virtually zero risk and not even pay them on time. There aren’t any hard and fast rules and if they’re working for a low wage, they’re helpless at hiring an attorney anyhow. There’s seriously nothing to lose. Always remember they need your reference for future jobs so you can get away with a lot. If it’s not entirely manual labor, make sure you plan the hours ahead of time and do all the communication outside of those hours; this way you won’t have to pay them for all the time they spend emailing and stuff like that. You can end up getting away with far below minimum wage if you do it smart, and at the end of the day, you can feel good about yourself becaue you are helping to fight unemployment!
