Yes! Locum tenens jobs are not directly comparable with perm jobs because permanent providers are salaried, while locum tenens are paid an hourly rate, but locum tenens providers typically outearn perm providers on an hourly basis, sometimes earning more than twice as much as their perm counterparts.
There are a variety of reasons locum tenens workers often earn more than their perm counterparts. This is partly because facilities use locum jobs to fill in urgent vacancy, often for in-demand roles, and pay competitively as a result.
