 * Certificate of Eligibility for short-term locums (CEL)


CERTIFICATE OF ELIGIBILITY FOR SHORT-TERM LOCUMS (CEL)



An NHS certificate of eligibility for locums in O&G will be a pre-requisite for
employment of short-term locums for tier 2nd and 3rd on call rotas (2 weeks or
less) from February 2023.

RCOG guidance on the engagement of short-term locums in maternity care (August
2022) (PDF)

RCOG has developed the above guidance on the engagement of locums in maternity
care in collaboration with the NHS. This guidance outlines the roles and
responsibilities for healthcare providers, health care organisations and
individual doctors undertaking locum positions within the NHS.

CEL user guide (PDF 2.2mb)

For the purposes of this guidance, a ‘locum’ refers to a doctor who is either
placed by a locum agency or a locum bank in a healthcare provider organisation
or directly engages with healthcare organisations for short-term work. For the
purposes of this guidance, ‘short-term’ refers to placements of two weeks or
less.

A locum can also be a doctor in a short-term placement who is an employee of the
organisation for a short, fixed term. There may also be doctors in training who
work as locums outside their training.
