This article provides a step-by-step guide to the registration and payment process for locums working with Day Lewis.


Before Your Shift

Before working with Day Lewis, you should:

  • Update your Locate a Locum profile. Ensure your bank details and all relevant accreditations are current.

  • Review the Terms and Conditions for your job role and the Day Lewis Locum SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures).

  • Obtain Level 3 Safeguarding certification for vulnerable adults and children. This training is required for all clinical staff who may contribute to assessing, planning, and intervening with the health needs of vulnerable individuals.

  • Bring a locum-enabled Smartcard with you to the pharmacy.


After Your Shift: Getting Paid

To ensure you get paid promptly, follow these steps after your shift:

  1. Complete the Locum Claim Form. This is required for all locum dispensers. Do not complete or save the form online; you must download it first. The online version is cloud-based and will save your information, which is a security risk.

  2. Submit your claim form and any proof of expenses to locumco-ordinators@daylewisplc.co.uk as soon as possible, ideally within 24 hours.


Payment Information

  • Payment Method: Payments are made via BACS to the bank details on your Locate a Locum profile.

  • Payment Timeline: Processing takes place on the last working day of the month in which the shift was worked. You will receive the payment within five working days of the following month.

  • Expenses:

    • Pharmacists: Expenses are only paid if they were agreed upon at the time of booking.

    • Dispensers: Expenses are paid up to a maximum of £15, and proof of the expense must be sent with your claim form.
