Terms of Service

Accepting these terms

By using Good Yakka, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, that’s fine — but you won’t be able to use the platform. We’ve tried to keep this as plain as possible.

What Good Yakka does

Good Yakka is a platform that connects farmers looking for seasonal workers with people looking for farm work. We provide the tools for posting jobs, creating profiles, browsing listings, and managing applications. We are not an employer, employment agency, or labour hire company. We’re the platform — the connection between the two sides.

Your account

You need an account to use most features. You’re responsible for keeping your login details secure. If someone else uses your account, that’s on you — so pick a good password and don’t share it. You must be at least 18 years old to create an account.

All information you provide must be accurate and up to date. If we find out you’ve provided false information, we may suspend or close your account.

For workers

Using Good Yakka as a worker is free. You can create a profile, browse jobs, apply, and build your Digital CV at no cost. You’re responsible for making sure you have the right to work in Australia (valid visa, work rights, etc.).

For farmers

Posting a job on Good Yakka costs $49 AUD per listing. Your listing stays live until you fill the role — no time limits. Payment is due at the time of posting. All prices are in Australian dollars and include GST.

You’re responsible for complying with all Australian employment laws, including fair pay, working conditions, and workplace safety. Good Yakka is not responsible for the employment relationship between you and any worker.

Reviews

Both workers and farmers can leave reviews. Reviews must be honest, fair, and based on genuine experience. We don’t edit reviews, but we reserve the right to remove content that is defamatory, abusive, contains personal information, or is clearly fake.

Your review history is visible on your public profile. A strong track record builds credibility and helps farmers and workers make better decisions about who to work with.

What you can’t do

Don’t use Good Yakka to:

• Post false, misleading, or deceptive listings or profiles
• Harass, abuse, or discriminate against other users
• Spam, scrape, or use automated tools on the platform
• Circumvent the platform to avoid paying fees
• Post jobs that violate Australian employment law
• Impersonate someone else

We can suspend or terminate accounts that break these rules.

Refunds

If you post a job and don’t receive any applicants within 14 days, contact us and we’ll sort out a refund. Outside of that, payments are non-refundable — your listing stays live until you fill the role, so there’s no time-based expiry.

Our liability

Good Yakka is a platform, not a party to any employment arrangement. We don’t guarantee that you’ll find a worker or a job. We’re not liable for disputes between workers and farmers, working conditions, pay, or anything that happens off the platform.

We do our best to keep the platform running smoothly, but we can’t guarantee it’ll be available 100% of the time. Downtime happens.

Intellectual property

The Good Yakka brand, design, and platform are ours. Content you post (profiles, listings, reviews) remains yours, but you give us permission to display it on the platform. Don’t copy, reproduce, or rip off our stuff without permission.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. If we make significant changes, we’ll let you know. Continued use of the platform after changes means you accept the new terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. Any disputes will be handled in the courts of Victoria.
