What a full-time arrangement means
A full-time live-out arrangement is the default for most households: roughly eight to ten hours a day, six days a week, with the staff member travelling home each evening. It keeps the employment relationship simpler than live-in — no accommodation obligations, no privacy questions in either direction — and it suits the majority of households that need consistent daily coverage without round-the-clock presence.
Who this suits
- Households with predictable daytime needs rather than early-morning or overnight demands
- Families who would rather not take on accommodation obligations
- Homes without a spare room suitable for a live-in arrangement
- Employers who want a clear boundary between working hours and their own family time

- The weekly off day, fixed rather than "whenever things are quiet"
- How they will commute, and whether you contribute to transport
- Whether lunch is provided during working hours
- Who has keys, and the arrangement if you are out when they arrive

How pay works
PKR 25,000 / month is the typical starting point for office boys & support staff in Korang Town, Islamabad.
The full monthly figure is paid in cash, with no board or lodging offsetting it. Add a transport allowance where the commute is long or the shift starts early — it costs less than replacing someone who quietly leaves for a job closer to home.
The mistake to avoid
Ignoring the commute. A candidate living ninety minutes away will be genuinely late in winter fog and heavy rain, and no amount of good intent fixes that. Confirm the actual journey at shortlist stage rather than discovering it in the first week.
Full-time staff in Korang Town, Islamabad
Commute is the deciding factor in Islamabad more than most cities. The sectors are spread out, public transport barely exists outside the Metro corridor, and a candidate living in Rawalpindi or a far G-sector faces a real journey to DHA Phase II or Bahria Enclave. Expect to lose otherwise strong candidates on travel alone unless you offer a transport allowance or accept a later start. Staff already living in or near your sector are worth prioritising for exactly this reason.
A dense residential area near Zero Point with compact housing, where households typically need a single cook or helper rather than a full staff team.
