Locum Rates 2026 Poll

Hi all,

As per previous request, we wanted to post a poll to get an idea of what the average locum rates are at the moment (2025-2026).
This will help us create a sense of unity and accountability to try and prevent exploitation.

If you’ve recently worked as a locum (like in the last year), please indicate what your rates have been. You can select more than one option.
