Payment Guidelines

 

 

Description of how you get paid by us

 

Hopefully these guidelines will provide all the necessary information you require to ensure a smooth flow of payment into your bank account for any Locum work completed via Agenda Medical Nursing. We follow standard payroll procedure but if you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact our Payroll department for more advise on 01992 501 515.

 

Registration Forms

 

Once you have been placed on an assignment you will be requested to fill in several forms to complete registration. One of the most important for payroll purposes is our Payment Details Form which is available to view and print here. You will need to confirm whether you will be PAYE (in which case we require a P45 or P46) or invoice direct via a Limited Company (in which case we need proof of status).

 

Timesheets

 

We require signed timesheets from the Client. You can download timesheets here and they can also be found attached to your Assignment Confirmation. You must ensure that the Client signs the timesheets for the correct amount of work completed. You timesheet must be signed by someone who is authorised to do so (Practice Manager, GP Partner, spR, Medical Staffing or a Consultant), failure to get an authorised signature may delay your payment. The timesheets must be returned by either fax or post. Our fax number is 01992 501 515. It is your responsibility to keep copies of all timesheets submitted to Agenda.

 

Unsigned timesheets: Please do not leave an unsigned timesheet with a Client expecting them to send it to Agenda, please ensure you follow it up with a Client to get the signed timesheet.

 

National Insurance Number

 

All Locums, even those not on PAYE, will be asked to verify their National Insurance Number.

 

Self Assessment Tax Number

 

If you are paid gross, you will need to provide us with your self assessment tax number and sign to confirm that you are responsible for your own tax and national insurance contributions. All Locums paid gross will need to agree, read and sign our Terms of Engagement which can be found here.

 

Bank Account

 

Ideally you have a UK bank account set up before you start your first Locum role with us. If you do not have a UK bank account set up, contact your consultant who may be able to arrange this for you.

 

Limited Companies

 

If you require payment to a Limited Company bank account, we will need a copy of your Limited Company certificate. You will also need to raise an invoice for the Locum assignments you complete for Agenda. All Locums paid via a Limited Company will need to agree, read and sign our Terms of Engagement which can be found here.
