Guide for use:

Total hours worked are for both employed and self-employed health professionals.

Total hours worked in private sector:

  • includes travel to home visits or calls out;
  • excludes other time travelling between work locations; and
  • excludes unpaid professional and/or voluntary activities.

Registered health professionals on leave at the time of registration are asked to report their usual hours worked.

Private sector employment is employment by an establishment that may receive some government funding but is run by the non-government sector. Private sector establishments are not controlled by government, are directed by a group of officers, an executive committee or a similar body elected by a majority of members, and may be an income tax exempt charity.
