FAQs about our carer salary calculator

What is the average wage in the care industry?

As an average full-time CareGiver you can expect to earn between £400-£520 a week before statutory deductions (paying tax and national insurance contributions). This average is based on an estimated 40 hours a week spent caring. 

Average salaries tend to be higher for Live-in CareGiver roles, due to the increased level of support that the Client needs. Senior CareGivers also take on more duties than a junior role and their average salary will reflect the extra amount of responsibility.

It is worth noting that Care industry wages in the UK vary depending on various factors, including your experience, the hours that you work and where you live.

Use the sliding scale within the results page of our Salary Calculator to find out the average salary for those working 16 to 35 hours a week.

How many hours does someone in the care industry work?

We offer part-time and full-time roles for our care roles ranging from 16 to 40 hours per week. If you choose to work part-time, you can request to work additional hours, depending on demand. On the whole, as your working hours increase, so will your earnings, and vice versa.

Will I be paid for mileage?

In addition to your salary, we also pay our CareGivers for the mileage they travel between Client visits. Some of our Clients may live slightly further afield, so we cover the travel costs for CareGivers.
