But how does this scale? Because everyone is going to want a few jobs, and nobody is going to want to do the crappy chore jobs. Anyone with roommates will have had a conflict over messes, how is that different than a commune at a smaller scale?
I really don't mean this in a dismissive way, but it'd be better if you just read a book on communist theory. Because I cab give you a summery of 1 of the possible solutions but without further context it will just generate more questions.
But if you don't want that summary: people that work less desirable jobs get more benefits like early retirement or priority for certain luxury goods or something like that, but would ultimately have to be decided on by the community at large.
You could make the menial jobs age based - ie the younger take that mantel until they're of age.
Or make everyone take part in it.
Either way would probably be a great way to clean the place up, supercharge recycling and axe planned obsolescence FAST
