On going through the contract again, I see all the conditions have been written in a negative way, many conditions giving the agency excuses not to pay. The termination clauses again are written almost like how they could terminate without any reason. Only a crooked mind could have drafted such conditions, which treat contractor like number one enemy and never to be trusted.
By the way, this is a big agency, seems to have international presence, and seems to have some big clients. I will name and shame them if they ever invoke any of the unreasonable conditions to harass me or avoid paying me.
The agency and contractor both have to work together, and often each dependent other for business. Why one party (Agency) should put one-sided conditions and dictate that to be accepted? The problem is - often unsuspecting contractors are tricked into accepting these unreasonable conditions. Why not contractor group come with a standard contract and insist that format, with slight change for each given circumstance?
