Regulatory Compliance in Locum Pharmacy Services: The Necessity of Licensed Agencies

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.

Paying Locums on Invoice & The PAYG Obligations It Could Trigger

Paying locum pharmacists directly via invoice can expose your pharmacy to unexpected PAYG and superannuation obligations. Many pharmacies mistakenly assume an ABN makes a locum a contractor, but the ATO’s guidelines prove otherwise. Without proper payroll handling, you could face paperwork overload, double payments, and compliance risks. The solution? Partner with Pharmacy SOS. Our payroll service manages PAYG, superannuation, and tax compliance—so you receive one simple invoice. Avoid financial pitfalls and streamline locum payments with our expert support.
