Hello, please be kind as this is my first post.
Fortunately / unfortunately I was offered a contract by phone about one hour before I got on a plane for a nice two week holiday. I verbally accepted the contract and agreed a start date.
While I was on holiday the agency was not able to send me the contract due to delays on their side. I came back to the UK and started at the customer site on the Monday. I received my contract by email Monday at midday. (So I started before seeing the agency content of the contract)
Unfortunately I spotted some mistakes in their contract and requested
1/ Days / hours per week to be added
2/ Termination period from Contractor to Agency to be added as 14 days.
(Agency to contractor was already stated as 14 days).
At the moment the agency verbally said they are happy to change the notice period to 30 days. I am waiting on a reply for the 14 days i requested.
Now I have a problem and I know they are of my making due to starting work before signing a contract I was happy with.
The problem is I wish finish the contract, preferably give 14 days notice to enable to customers to have suitable time to find suitable resource to replace me.
Do I have a notice period? Am I governed under the Agencies contract as I did not have sight of it until after I was on the customer premises?
