What HFH offers?

• Our client base requires ongoing care, 24 hours a day, and benefits from the continuity of a small core team of regular care staff.
• Specialist carers work with one client per shift and do not travel between multiple homes. The average shift duration is 12hrs.
• Where possible, we will offer you work to meet your availability. The average carer works three shifts (36hrs) per week for us and earns £500 555 p/wk.
• The regular working patterns that our clients require mean this three-day-a-week work pattern equates to an average annual income of between £26,200 and £28,950.
• We employ all staff directly and manage all aspects of your pay via PAYE. This removes the need for you to employ third‑party companies or calculate your own tax and protects you from breaching IR35 tax regulations.
• *Please note: This is dependent on your shift pattern (days/nights/weekends) and the rates shown are inclusive of holiday pay, which is accumulated per hour worked.
