Superannuation, WorkCover, and payroll tax obligations may still apply. Pharmacy SOS is a licensed agency in Victoria and Queensland, offering a compliant and hassle-free payroll and locuming service.
Managing locum pharmacist payroll just got easier. Pharmacy SOS offers a fully compliant, hassle-free payroll service for pharmacies—whether you’re hiring through us or using your own locums.

Working with Pharmacy SOS ensures your pharmacy stays compliant while accessing professional, reliable locum pharmacists.

At Pharmacy SOS, we use a Swift, Optimal, Smart (SOS) locum pharmacist selection approach to match the best locums to pharmacy shifts. Our priority system considers registration status, pharmacy-specific requirements, performance feedback, and response speed. The sooner you confirm availability, the higher your chances of getting booked. We also prioritize locums with strong feedback on professionalism, customer service, and reliability. 💡 Pro Tip: Ask pharmacies for feedback and share it with us—we verify it, and strong reviews help secure more shifts! Stay engaged, be proactive, and maximize your opportunities with Pharmacy SOS!
Our system automatically allocates loyalty points based on time sheet shift activity and other triggers. Occasionally, points may be added in error—for example, if a time sheet is accidentally entered for the wrong shop or if we receive negative feedback from a pharmacy about your shift as a locum, we may deduct points. During our regular review process, we correct these discrepancies by deducting points that were mistakenly applied. If you believe points were deducted in error, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team—we’re happy to look into it for you.
In 2025, compliance with labour hire regulations is more crucial than ever for locum pharmacists and pharmacies. In Australia, using a licensed agency is mandatory to avoid penalties in states such as VIC and QLD. Licensed agencies like Pharmacy SOS provide payroll services, clarify employment status, and ensure compliance, reducing administrative burdens and legal risks. By choosing a licensed agency, both locums and pharmacies can focus on delivering quality healthcare services while maintaining legal protection.
