Has anyone had experience of being coerced into signing an opt-out clause in a contract? I choose not to because I have no interest in signing away my rights and believe it is better for client and contractor to opt-in.
Obviously, the additional admin burden for agencies and the fact that they can't incorporate hand-cuff clauses and are also liable for paying you whether the client does or not, means they are VERY keen for contractors to opt-out. However, it is illegal for them to force this and I am reporting one to the DTI for so-doing. Anyone else had any experience of this?
