Advice needed in dismissal

[stek]

With what? With terminating his contract? Everything.
Do you have another opinion? Please share.

Really?

[MicrosoftBob]

Follow it up by email and in writing that you are giving notice under the terms of the contract, then at least you have a papertrail

Hi, I approached the director of the company iv been working for ...
...As a contractor do I have any rights here?

Were you limited? Were you talking to yourself?

One of the reasons I talk to myself is to get an intelligent conversation where the other person is nice to me.

If I wanted abuse I would "talk" to my ex.

But in the case of the OP, who I suspect is a temp, .

No tulip Sherlock

As a contractor do I have any rights here?

[WTFH]

I chose to remain silent & simply left,

iv since been informed by a now ex colleague the announcement was made iv left!!

So, as a result of a meeting you chose to leave. Permies in the office have been told that you chose to leave.


What advice are you looking for? Do you want to know if you can sue? Do you want to know how to get over it and move on?


You weren't dismissed, permies get dismissed. Temporary staff/contractors have their contracts terminated.
You went in to a meeting to have your contract terminated and your contract was terminated.

Hi, I approached the director of the company iv been working for (3yrs) to give notice of my intention to move on, without going in to the full details I was subjected to a barrage of abusive words/allegations & told to #### off before I'd got more than 20 seconds into my sentence. I chose to remain silent & simply left, iv since been informed by a now ex colleague the announcement was made iv left!!
Where do I stand legally as iv been dismissed for trying to hand in my notice, is that allowed? As a contractor do I have any rights here?

Go back.
Chin him.
You will feel much better.

HTH.

You have the right to moan and be annoyed. That's about it.
As for remaining silent; interesting way to handle it, I'd have given the tuliphead a piece of my mind, loudly enough for his staff to understand what a tosser he was, before walking calmly and ever-so-cooly out the door.

He should have recorded the conversation. And played it back to his now ex colleague

Though they can give you notice at any time and may not have to give you any work, surely they cannot terminate the contract without invoking the notice period unless you have violated some aspect of it?

Just "firing you" on the spot for trying to give notice isn't valid.

What does your agent say?

It doesn't matter a bean. He's been tulip-canned and that's the end of it.

Potentially he can hit the agency for notice pay, depends on the terms.
