The advantages of temping in healthcare
Temporary healthcare jobs are the career choice for many individuals as well as the ideal solutions for those who are between healthcare jobs, travelling or who simply want short-term projects. Consider the advantages ...
Competitive rates of pay
The market for temporary medical, allied health and scientific professionals is highly competitive. As a result, experienced, flexible individuals with initiative, who are available to start work at short notice, will always be in demand.
Your Hays Healthcare recruitment consultant will work to secure the best possible rate of pay for every healthcare you undertake and our daily payroll system will ensure that you are paid accurately and on time.
Holiday pay
As a Hays Healthcare temp, your holiday pay equates to 24 days pro rata for those who work full time hours. Anyone working as a limited company will not be eligible to claim holiday pay as it is already included in your pay rate. It is your responsibility to ensure that you book holidays on days that are acceptable to our client.
Because we realise that many people choose temporary healthcare jobs for the flexibility they offer, we will pay your holiday pay weekly and not in arrears which means that you can take your holiday whenever you choose and make the most of any time between assignments. Please be sure to advise your recruitment consultant well in advance if you wish to take holiday time during an assignment.
Referral bonus
Why not refer a friend or colleague to Hays Healthcare and earn some extra money. We’ll pay you a generous bonus for every medical, allied health and scientific professional that you refer. Money is paid once the referred person completes a specified number of hours work through Hays Healthcare. Speak to your consultant for full terms and conditions of this offer.
Access to the UK’s top employers
As the largest and most successful specialist recruitment consultancy in the UK, Hays has links with a wealth of top employers. As a result we can offer you an unrivalled choice of healtcare jobs, covering in all grades and specialties, within acute trusts, PCTs, HM Prison Service, local authorities, nursing homes, private healthcare providers and the industrial/commercial sectors throughout the country.
Training
All Hays Healthcare workers are expected to maintain their mandatory training including CPR, Manual Handling, COSHH, RIDDOR and Health and Safety. You will have access to a range of courses across the country enabling you to enhance your clinical practice and also to produce clear recordable evidence of Continued Professional Development.
In addition, when you start working through Hays Healthcare, you will be provided with an Induction Handbook. This contains policies, procedures and statements aimed at providing you with a clear understanding of what is expected of you during the course of your healthcare jobs and while working through Hays Healthcare.
Permanent healthcare jobs
If you’re looking for a permanent healthcare job then keeping your skills sharp in a temporary role (even if not directly relevant to the type of permanent position you want) will make you more attractive to prospective employers. Experience shows that individuals in temporary healthcare jobs have a significantly higher chance of being asked to attend interview than those biding their time outside the working environment.
