ALLIED HEALTH PAY AND BENEFITS

Onward offers a competitive benefits plan that provides our allied health professionals with all of the "extras" you need and expect. We offer competitive insurance benefits, lucrative bonus programs, and the highest possible healthcare salaries based on your level of experience. In addition, we conform to all wage and hour overtime laws and pay time and a half for working holiday shifts. We process payroll weekly and offer direct deposit on your first paycheck (as long as you provide us with a voided check). Please read below for some of our additional benefits.

Onward Bonus Program (Travel and Per Diem)

Onward Healthcare offers one of the most comprehensive bonus plans in the industry, including up to $5,000 completion bonuses for select travel assignments. These bonuses are paid upon the completion of your assignment and are detailed in your contract. We also offer renewal bonuses on select assignments of thirteen weeks or longer. Local bonus programs also exist for per diem shifts and full-time contracts.

Onward Loyalty Rewards (Travel)

In addition to sign-on and completion bonuses, we also offer annual bonuses. After one year of travel service, you get $1,000. Each subsequent year the bonus increases by $1,000 increments. For example, if you stay with Onward for 2 years, your bonus at the end of the second year is $2,000. This program is currently in place up to 3 years at $3,000.

Onward Insurance Program (Travel and Per Diem)

Onward provides a free comprehensive health benefits package to our travel allied health professionals. As an Onward travel professional, your benefits include free medical and dental coverage, with optional coverage for your dependents available for a fee. In addition, we offer vision coverage for a small premium. Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) and Professional Liability Insurance are also provided free of charge to ensure you are always covered. Local Per Diem professionals can also qualify for free benefits based on their work schedule. Please contact your local recruiter or our benefits administrator for more information.

Onward Free Private Housing (Travel)

Onward offers free, private housing at some of the leading rental communities across the country to our travel professionals. We employ an onsite housing team to ensure you receive quality furnished accommodations in comfortable, pleasant neighborhoods, close to your facility. In addition, you will receive a monthly stipend to supplant the cost of your utilities. If you elect not to utilize our housing, you will receive a generous monthly subsidy in addition to your standard pay.

Our Refer-A-Friend program is currently offering select allied healthcare professionals up to $750 for each referral of a professional who completes a 13-week assignment or longer. Each bonus is payable upon completion of your referral's first assignment. For local per diem employees, a bonus will be awarded when the referred employee works eighty (80) hours with Onward Healthcare. In order to receive the reward, the new employee and the referring employee must be actively working.
