Terms of use

1. These terms, and the agreement that outranks them

By using fullbench.co or the platform at app.fullbench.co you accept these terms. If your district or agency has signed a Fullbench participation agreement, that agreement governs the program — including fees, service levels, liability, and termination — and controls wherever it differs from this page.

2. What the program is

Fullbench is a managed staffing network for K-12 schools and districts. Districts release openings to the staffing agencies they have approved; agencies submit candidates; the district makes every selection and approves every hour. We coordinate that process and provide the software it runs on.

We are not the employer of the professionals placed through the program. Each is employed or engaged by the agency that supplies them. That agency is responsible for wages, taxes, benefits, workers' compensation, and its own employment obligations.

3. Accounts

Accounts are for named individuals. Do not share credentials. Tell us promptly if you believe an account has been compromised, and we will disable it. You are responsible for actions taken under your account.

4. The district decides

The district selects candidates, sets required credential documents, approves or returns hours, and decides which agencies participate. Nothing in the platform overrides that authority. The credential gate prevents a start date from being set while a required document is missing, unreviewed, or expired — it is a control in your favour, not a judgement we make on your behalf.

5. What we do not do

We do not verify credentials against state databases. We review the documents your district requires and record the outcome. We do not make hiring decisions, set your rates, provide legal or procurement advice, or replace your district's own background-check, HR, or board-approval processes.

6. Acceptable use

Do not use the platform to break the law, to access data belonging to another district or agency, to probe or bypass access controls, to upload malware, or to scrape it by automated means. We may suspend access that endangers other participants' data.

7. Fees

There is no direct program cost to a participating school or district. Participating agencies pay a participation fee stated in the agreement, charged on collected billings and itemized on every remittance. The rate, the base it is charged on and when it is taken are set out in the participation agreement an agency signs, before it sees any work. Where these terms and a signed participation agreement disagree, the agreement governs.

8. Your data

Your program record is yours. You may export it at any time. Our handling of it is described in our privacy policy and security page.

9. Availability

We work to keep the platform available and will give notice of planned maintenance where we reasonably can. We do not promise uninterrupted service on this page; any service commitment lives in your participation agreement.

10. Content on this site

The words, design, and marks on this site are ours. Product and company names belonging to others are used for identification only and remain their owners'. If you believe we have described your product inaccurately on a comparison page, tell us and we will correct it.

11. Disclaimer and liability

This website is provided as-is for information. To the extent permitted by law we disclaim implied warranties for the website itself, and our liability for the program is governed by the participation agreement rather than this page.

12. Changes

We may update these terms; the date above changes when we do. Material changes affecting an active district or agency are communicated to their named contact.
