Questions

Locum prosthetist and orthotist FAQs.

How much does a locum prosthetist and orthotist earn?

Locum prosthetist and orthotist rates depend on band or grade, speciality, location and how urgent the cover is. Our locum healthcare pay guide sets out illustrative hourly ranges for PAYE and umbrella. Actual rates are agreed per assignment and Actionus always works to achieve the best rate available.

Do I need to be registered to work as a locum prosthetist and orthotist?

Yes. You need current registration with the HCPC, plus right to work in the UK. Before your first shift we also complete DBS, references and occupational health checks.

Will I be paid through PAYE or an umbrella company?

Both are available on most assignments. PAYE means you are paid directly with tax and National Insurance deducted. Umbrella means you are employed by an umbrella company that pays you. We explain the take-home difference before you accept a booking.

Do locums get holiday pay and a pension?

Yes. Under the Working Time Regulations, holiday pay is accrued at 12.07% of hours worked. Eligible workers are auto-enrolled into a workplace pension and can opt out.
