Clinic culture
Trust over appointment volume
We value the small details patients notice: clear communication, respectful consent and treatment, and a clear direction that makes sense.
Care quality: patients should feel informed, respected, and supported before, during, and after an appointment.
Clear communication: care explanations, consent, and expectations are part of the appointment, not extras added at the end.
Schedule stability: a schedule is supported by trust, appropriate rebooking, patient relationships, and clinical follow-through.
A career with support around it
We are built for clinicians who care about the full patient experience. The right fit is not only looking for a room, a percentage, or a schedule. They want clear patient communication, supported booking flow, clinical standards, role clarity, and professional development.
Patient pathways
Work within a multidisciplinary clinic where patients can access multiple services when their care direction calls for it.
Clinic infrastructure
JaneApp booking, intake flow, furnished rooms, admin touchpoints, and support help organize the work around the appointment.
Learning and career support
Onboarding, shared standards, clinical guidance, ethical retention coaching, and access to clinical growth courses help develop your career.
Employee and contractor pathways
CRA looks at the full working relationship to determine classification. That is why we explain the pathways as full structures, not just rates. For candidates who want to understand employee vs self-employed status, the CRA publishes guidance on the distinction: Employee or Self-employed?
Employee pathway
Starts with a 50% base commission, plus vacation and holiday pay. Growth tiers may become available as schedule, consistency, and contribution grow.
- Professional fees & insurance support up to $1,200/year where eligible
- Vacation and stat holiday pay
- Health benefits where eligible
- Lifestyle credit up to $500/year where eligible
- Eligible for education or loan-support credits after probation
- Paid meetings, training, and community outreach where applicable
Contractor pathway
A 70% split with an associate fee of $5 per scheduled clinic hour plus $12 per completed appointment, plus HST.
- Business-to-business structure
- Contractor responsible for taxes, business obligations, and expenses
- Associate fee covers clinic infrastructure, and CRA-relevant financial responsibilities.
- Professional fees and insurance are contractor expenses
- Ineligible for benefits, professional fees support, or lifestyle credit
How we clarify the working relationship
Before choosing a pathway, we clarify how the work will actually function. Planning for self-employment can include many different categories, we review all the details so expectations are clear from the start.
What changes the numbers
Real income changes with the way appointments, expenses, support, time away, and schedule stability interact.
Completed visits
The schedule only becomes income when appointments are booked, completed, retained, and supported by a clear care experience.
Included supports
Clinic systems, room access, admin support, booking flow, and patient communication all sit around the appointment.
Separate expenses
Contractors need to account for taxes, business obligations, associate fees, time away, and other contractor-side costs.
Clear Growth Pathways
Our employee pathway starts at 50% base commission and can grow from there. Higher earning tiers become available when schedule, utilization, and contribution grow.
Base employee pathway
Starts at 50% commission with vacation and stat holiday pay. This is the core employee pathway once role and probation requirements are met.
Growth pathway
Higher earning potential may become available as your schedule, utilization, and consistency grow.
Senior pathway
Senior-tier earning potential is reserved for established clinicians with larger schedules, strong utilization, and positive contributions.

How the estimates are built
Purpose: This tool is for planning conversations, not payroll advice, tax advice, or an income guarantee.
Estimate note: These are planning examples only, not income guarantees. Employee results are calculated at the 50% base commission pathway. Final compensation depends on role, agreement structure, schedule size, booking level, cancellations, probation status, eligibility for supports, time away, tax treatment, clinic review, and actual patient volume.
Schedule assumption: 6-hour shifts, up to 5 paid appointment hours per shift after spacing and break time.
Employee annual assumption: Employee estimates use the 50% base commission pathway, 48 worked weeks, plus 4% vacation pay and a simplified Ontario public-holiday pay estimate.
Contractor annual assumption: Contractor estimates use 47 working weeks to reflect unpaid vacation/time away and estimated unpaid stat-day impact. Contractors control their schedules and may choose to work some holiday periods.
Contractor associate-fee assumption: Contractor estimates use $5 per scheduled clinic hour plus $12 per completed appointment, plus HST.
Professional fees and insurance assumption: Employee estimates include up to $1,200/year in eligible professional fees and insurance support. Education or loan-support credits may be available for eligible clinicians, but they are not added to the calculator math. Contractor and outside-offer examples include professional fees and insurance as business planning costs.
Outside-offer costs: Outside-offer examples include selected business planning costs such as professional fees, insurance, bookkeeping, accounting, software, supplies, tax filing, unpaid time away, and income-protection planning.
Tax assumption: This tool estimates earnings before income tax and does not calculate personal or business deductions.
Clinical development
Support, mentorship, and career path
Clinicians should not have to guess how a clinic wants patients supported or how their pathway can grow. We make expectations and development opportunities clear.
Structured onboarding
We review privacy, consent, documentation, communication, rebooking, room setup, JaneApp flow, and patient follow-through.
Clinical growth course
Where appropriate, we pay for an independent third-party clinical growth course so learning exists beyond internal feedback alone.
Room to develop
There is opportunity to grow into higher earning potential with contributions to service development, internal education, and leadership.
Onboarding at the clinic
Your first 90 days are built to help you settle in with clarity. We walk through the role, clinic systems, patient communication, and care standards.
- We review the pathway, compensation structure, schedule expectations, clinic supports, and responsibilities.
- We set up JaneApp, booking details, service positioning, privacy expectations, consent language, and patient-flow expectations.
- We align on how care should feel here: clear explanation, consent, comfort, draping, appropriate rebooking, and follow-through after the appointment.
- During the first month, we review clinic flow, early bookings, patient communication, documentation, rebooking conversations, and the questions that come up as you settle in.
- We revisit schedule fit, booking patterns, patient retention, internal referral opportunities, and learning goals.
Onboarding is designed to make the role, schedule, systems, communication standards, and patient-care expectations clear before you are carrying the work independently.

Quick answers
Before you apply
Answers for practitioners who want to understand role fit, pathway, support, expectations, and compensation before starting a conversation.
We are actively looking for RMTs, manual osteopaths, and chiropractors. We are open to the right physiotherapy or clinic administration application. We are not currently hiring for yoga therapy.
There is room for clinicians throughout the week, with morning and evening shifts available. The clinic is currently closed Sundays. Schedule details depend on role, room availability, clinic need, and agreement structure.
Our employee pathway starts with a 50% base commission, plus vacation and stat holiday pay. Growth and senior earning tiers may become available as your schedule, utilization, consistency, and contribution to the clinic grow. Eligible clinicians may also qualify for supports such as licensing and insurance support, health benefits, lifestyle support, education or loan-support credits, and paid meetings or training.
Not always. A percentage only makes sense when you understand the whole offer: appointment fees, completed visits, cancellations, expenses, taxes, associate fees, professional fees, insurance, employee benefits, and what the clinic includes.
No. They are planning examples before income tax. Employee examples subtract employee-side CPP/EI. Contractor examples subtract associate fees, professional fees, CPP/income-protection planning, and selected business costs.
The fee reflects reserved clinic capacity, room access, JaneApp systems, administrative support, resources, completed appointment use, and the business responsibilities that sit with the contractor pathway. We show it clearly so candidates can compare the whole structure, not just the percentage. At GOW, the contractor associate fee is $5 per scheduled clinic hour plus $12 per completed appointment, plus HST.
Depending on role and schedule, employee benefits may include professional fees and insurance support up to $1,200/year where eligible. They may also include health benefits, lifestyle credit up to $500/year where eligible, education or loan-support credits where eligible, paid meetings or training where applicable, payroll handled through employment, and clinic-provided systems.
We review your role interest, availability, preferred pathway, and schedule fit. If there may be alignment, we book a conversation and discuss compensation, expectations, agreement structure, and next steps early.
