Client Co Changing working days

Well, it can't mean the Sunday if you don't agree to that. I mean, if you don't agree it, it's not "agreed locally with the Client Representative": self-evident, no?Originally posted by Mike_Collingwood View PostThanks, I thought that a "new" contract would have to be drawn up etc.
One thing I have noticed looking at the contract I last signed it says in a section headed:
Specified hours/days per week:
"37.5 hours To be agreed locally with the Client Representative"
Does this open me up to whatever they like and change at any moment?
Or does this mean the working days agreed at the beging of the contract ie: Mon-Fri?
But as a general principle, when it starts turning sour, start looking around, just in case.Comment
