Companionship services are when someone helps another person with personal things like taking a bath or getting dressed. This kind of help is different from cleaning a house. People who do companionship services don't have to get paid a certain amount of money or work a certain number of hours according to a law called the Federal Labor Standards Act.
Companionship services refer to the assistance provided to individuals who require help with personal matters such as bathing and dressing. This type of service is exempt from the Federal Labor Standards Act's minimum-wage and overtime requirements.
These examples illustrate how companionship services can help individuals with their personal needs and provide them with social interaction and support. Companionship services can improve the quality of life for those who require assistance with daily activities and may not have access to regular social interaction.
