Free Dental Hygienist (Temp) Service Agreement

One last-minute cancellation turns your workday into an unpaid commute while the office saves a buck on your back. Without a signed paper, you're the one eating the cost when their ancient equipment snaps or the schedule falls apart.

Pro Contractor Tip

Staple a 'Short-Notice Cancellation Fee' to the contract so your time is bought and paid for the second you are booked.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Dental Hygienist (Temp), "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I show up and the patient list is empty?

A solid contract treats your time as a reserved block, meaning you get paid the full day's rate whether the chairs are full or the office is a ghost town.

The office manager wants me to scrub toilets because there is a gap in the schedule.

Put a 'Scope of Work' clause in there to keep your hands on the tools you are trained for, not doing chores because they can't manage a calendar.

How do I make sure I get paid at the end of the shift instead of waiting weeks for a check?
