Pay depends on many factors. At an absolute minimum, for shift-by-shift roles, rates will be the casual rate awarded at that hospital or healthcare facility, with appropriate loading.

Some roles may have uCoin, bonus or incentive payment attached. Surge rates may be offered for in-demand skills and experience, giving healthcare workers more choice.

Every shift available on uPaged shows the rate of pay on offer. Healthcare workers can choose an opportunity based on the rate of pay on offer, location, cancellation rate or healthcare facility or hospital rating – whatever is most important to the healthcare worker.

Yes, you can get paid overtime!

Occasionally, a facility may request that you work hours longer than specified in your booking, and you may agree to do so. We ask you to consider if there is any risk to your health and safety or adverse impact on your family responsibilities by accepting overtime.

Employees are not obliged to work overtime if the demand is unreasonable or not agreed upon between you and the healthcare organisation.

Please refer to your employment contract for any overtime allowances related to each employer. This may be either the facility OR uPaged.
