Umbrellas

There are a number of methods you can use to be paid, depending on the Trust you’ll be working in. Some hospitals in England have a payment portal in place. If your locum booking is with one of these Trusts, you will be paid via their payment portal, directly to your personal bank account. Both national insurances and PAYE will be deducted at source by the Hospital, prior to payment being made. Further information on this will be detailed in the booking confirmation we send to you. If you work at a Hospital that doesn’t have a payment portal in place you are able to be paid PAYE via Locum People or utilise an Umbrella company.

Umbrellas

This is a list of umbrella companies we are currently engaged with.  This is not a recommended list or PSL – the list is umbrella companies that Locum People are currently engaged with.

We make no representations as to the tax compliance, quality of service of these umbrellas or the models they operate. We will not accept any responsibility or liability should a candidate experience problems with them.

Candidates may select any of these umbrellas at their own risk, and we highly recommend that the candidate carry out their own due diligence prior to selection. We further recommend that a candidate takes professional accounting or taxation advice around their choice of umbrella.

Please remember that when using an umbrella it is your responsibility to ensure your tax affairs are being dealt with correctly. We encourage you to be vigilant when looking at alternative umbrellas. Please see the latest communication from HMRC.

We advise you to explore the different payment methods available to ensure you are making the correct decision.
