I'm pretty dim, so I've read that and I don't know the implications of that decision and how it relates to us.
It doesn't seem to relate to opting-out, but if it does it appears to have shat on the very workers it was there to protect.."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

To be honest Cojak it's probably only really interesting to umbrella companies and agencies - sorry
Basically the important thing is that it was heavily debated in the industry whether or not a Swedish Derogation Contract would be effective if it was implemented during an assignment rather than only at the start of a new assignment - this case proves that the terms of the contract are correctly applied even if it is introduced mid way through an employment.
