Hello All,
I have recently joined FIS Global around end of April. My mother recently met with an accident and she needs to be operated.
I haven't been able to update the anything regarding the insurance part yet on FIS portal.
Will my mother's treatment be covered under the insurance? If yes, what's the procedure for the same? What are the documents that I need to submit in order to claim the amount?
Can anyone please guide?

What? No. That’s not how day rates work. That’s how recruiters want you to think that they work.
You gotta get paid more in your rate than your desired salary, so you can survive when you’re out of work and looking for the next thing.
Day rates and salaries are two different numbers that should be calculated separately.
Coach
Just ask around and find out what people in your area charge as a day rate, then add a little and see what people say. You’d be surprised what people are willing to pay if you just firmly state your price.
as a Sr Copywriter you should be +$100/hr

The most realistic one I've come across:
Yearly salary plus 30% divided by 220.
The 30% increase is for things like healthcare, taxes, etc. The 220 is the average number of days you'll work.
So if you make 120k a year, your day rate would come out to 709. (In which case you should just bump up to 750 so when they ask you to come down you can go to 725).
Full time yearly / 800 = your hourly
x8 = day rate
For example, in my last job I made 120k, my day rate is 1200/day. NYC 8 yrs exp
This may be true in NYC/LA. Elsewhere it’s more like FT Salary / 1000
I've seen some online like that - if you search around on Google some should pop up. They could be helpful if you want to get an idea of net profit, how much to budget for expenses, how much you have to work to hit your goal, etc. But I'd figure out your rate based on your value...i.e. I'm not going to charge more bc I want to take a few weeks off nor less because I'm double-booked. Good rule of thumb is Day Rate = FT Salary/125. Start with that and adjust based on demand/reception. Always do day or project rate. Good luck!
Coach
Two common methods:
Lower method: Salary / 125 for day rate. So if you make $100k / year, your day rate is $800.
Higher method: Salary / 100 for day rate. So if you make $100k / year, your day rate is $1,000.
Then to get your hourly rate, take your day rate and divide by 8 or 10, your choice.
