Pay and stipends on OT travel assignments in Salinas, CA

The published package on this contract is $2,577 gross per week — $666 in taxable wages plus $1,911 in stipends toward housing and meals, non-taxable where you qualify — or about $38,655 over the 15 weeks. You see the breakdown before you submit rather than after you sign, and your recruiter goes through it with you line by line.

On paper the assignment is 15 weeks long, about 35 hours a week and on the Day shift, about 525 scheduled hours end to end. Licensure and credentialing run alongside the submission rather than after it, so your CA paperwork is under way while the submission is in review and not left to the last week before the Salinas start date.

Pay figures are estimates based on current package details and may vary by location, experience, and IRS stipend eligibility. Care Connect Staffing is the hiring agency for this contract.
