Employing a Locum

Employing a locum has become more tricky with recent changes, particularly the changed IR35 legislation.

We think the information below may help:

1. Our colleagues at Wessex LMC have produced this excellent guide ‘ Top Tips for Employing Locums’ .
2. NHS guidance on employing as locum
3. When is a locum not a locum? The National Association of Sessional GPs guidance may help practices navigate the HMRC minefield.
4. The BMA have produced useful information on IR35 including this excellent blog from the sessional subcommittee.
