What Sets VPAs from Other Professionals

They are also not referred to as temporary workers, as they don’t go through any staffing agency, and, most of all, they don’t work in your office or in your home. What’s more, they get their salary straight from you, not from any recruitment or human resource firm.

So what is then a VPA? A VPA is an independent contractor, which means they can do the following:

1. They set their own rates. VPAs have the liberty to determine how much they would like to receive from their work based on their education, experience, expertise, and the difficulty level of the job. You can, however, negotiate.

2. They develop their own standards and policies. Their clients can very well provide instructions about the things that have to be accomplished. However, the VPAs are not bound to commit to any company policy or standards, unless they talk about disclosure of confidential information, stealing of copyright materials or ideas, or fraud and dishonesty.

3. They manage their own time. This could be one of the charms of being a VPA. As long as there are no time constraints available, they can work according to their own working schedule.

But are they secretaries? The answer is a yes or a no. They have the same characteristics, and yet the two professions can differ greatly. I know that I will be getting a lot of raised eyebrows with what I’m going to say, but the truth is it actually took a long time for secretaries to change the traditional perception of companies. A long time ago, secretaries only get to do almost all menial jobs that their bosses don’t want to. Moreover, they have the obligation to file all papers, fix their managers their daily coffee, and take down notes in meetings. They are also always on a call. Their main purpose or their significance of the success of the company is hardly ever felt.
