What is the process for taxation and self-employment for Locums?

Locums are classed as self-employed, subject to specific regulations. Find guidance at https://www.gov.uk/working-for-yourself.

How and when will I be paid for Locum shifts?

Our agency doesn’t manage locum payments; companies directly pay you. If payment disputes arise, we offer assistance. Send an email to registrations@locumpro.uk detailing your payment issue. Our team will review the matter and provide support.

Am I reimbursed for mileage?

Companies we collaborate with have varied mileage contributions and claiming procedures. While registering, you’ll receive a breakdown of mileage rates. Adjustments to rates are communicated through a new mileage help sheet. Inform LocumPro of your mileage preferences.

How will I receive my shifts?

You’ll receive a text outlining shifts booked for the following Day/Week/Month. It’s crucial to reply promptly as shifts can be booked up quickly.

What’s the furthest I need to travel for shifts?

Travel distance varies based on your area and rate preferences. While we expect a willingness to travel up to an hour, actual distances can be less or more. We’ll consult you before confirming any bookings.

What should I do if I can’t attend a shift?

For advance cancellations, inform Locumpro to handle the shift reassignment. For last-minute cancellations, text Locumpro and call the office number to reach the on-call coordinator.

What is the dress code?

Professional and appropriate attire is expected throughout your work. While attire specifics are your choice, complaints may arise if deemed inappropriate.
