Rates of remuneration for locums range from $80- $165/hr (all inclusive of salary and benefits) plus either 9% superannuation or 10% GST depending on employee or contractor status, reimbursement of per kilometre travel allowance or return airfares (for rural locums) and suitable accommodation (for rural locums). Rates depend on degree of experience, the urgency or difficulty of a position and the amount of notice required.

Some of our locums have an ABN and are prepared to work as contractors, billing the Area Health Service or employer directly. We make the assumption that hospital locums working on the hospital/area health service payroll will be generally employer/hospital indemnified and that locums billing on their own ABNs are responsible for their own indemnity.
