User Reported Events & Marketplace Best Practices

The Field Nation Marketplace relies on all users having a shared standard of respect, safety and compliance with the law when interacting with each other. To safeguard the health of the Marketplace, users are encouraged to report conduct that does not meet these standards. This page is meant as a resource to contextualize the Field Nation Terms & Conditions, Field Nation User Agreement(s), and Field Nation’s Report A User functionality.

Please do not use the Report a User functionality to dispute or request a work order payment or to share any unprofessional behavior or poor service quality you feel you have experienced. To open a case related to a work order payment, please use the “Report Problem” feature within the related work order. If you have experienced unprofessional behavior or poor service quality, please submit those details as work order feedback.

Marketplace Best Practices

To help maintain a healthy marketplace and ensure positive outcomes for all Field Nation users, we suggest keeping the following guidelines and recommendations in mind.

Marketplace Integrity

We are committed to fostering a marketplace where users can work together to thrive and grow their businesses. To achieve this, it is essential to uphold high standards of professional, lawful, and safe interactions.

Keep it professional

Maintain appropriate boundaries. Contact that is unrelated to a work order such as reaching out socially, trying to visit someone after a work order has been completed, or engaging in physical contact of any kind could all be seen as unwanted or harassment.

Respect others

Avoid using profane language or comments/questions about personal topics, such as religious beliefs, political affiliation, marital status, and/or physical appearance, all of which could be seen as offensive, threatening or discriminatory.

Prioritize safety

During all Field Nation engagements, adhere to local, state, and federal safety regulations. This includes OSHA, local code, permit and PPE requirements, as well as refraining from any activity that threatens or risks physical harm or encourages illegal or unsafe activity.

Transparency

Representing yourself correctly is critical to creating an environment where providers, buyers and their clients can trust one another.

Accuracy

The information you put in your Field Nation account and profile should remain up-to-date and correct (i.e. legal name, company name, location, contact information, credentials, etc.).

Authenticity

Authentically represent your experience, budget, scope, credentials, skills, and work history when publishing or requesting work on the Field Nation marketplace.

Authorization

A documented agreement between the buyer and provider is required to dispatch or bring anyone other than the assigned Provider to a work order location.

All are welcome

Together we can foster a positive and inclusive experience for everyone interacting through the Field Nation marketplace.
