Just a quick one. If my contract expires and I refuse to sign a new one but keep working at the client site - what happens?

1. You would have deemed to have accepted the contract.Originally posted by DocP View Post
2. You could be seen to be working for free.
3. The client may march you off site (unlikely, especially if 1 or 2 is true) and replace you with another candidate.
4. Some other probable outcome.If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here. -
you might not get paid?Comment

Standard answer is you will be working under the terms and conditions of your expired contract. Not sure if that is 100% true !?Originally posted by DocP View Post
It is not an easy way to go direct if I am reading your mind correctly.
If you are looking to change the T&Cs and the agency/client won't negotiate then you either stay and therefore accept them or you walk.Comment

Another Offer
What if another offer came along. Could I walk?Comment

I'm guessing by staying beyond your end date you are under the exisiting T&Cs and hence the notice period. But in practice if you walked ( as you get your timesheet signedOriginally posted by DocP View Post
) then you'd be fine.

What does the CONTRACT say?Originally posted by DocP View Post
If you stay, you have accepted the contract. So, read what it says, and see if that answers your question.Comment

Not yet seen
I've not seen the revised contract. The original had no notice period. I'm only a day in so not bothered about payment.Comment

That's been true of every contract I've worked and it's usually explicitly stated in your contract. ClientCo can start to get nervous about insurance implications of you being on site without a contract.Originally posted by rootsnall View Post
Unless the conditions of the contract have changed then a refusal to sign will probably be viewed unfavourably by ClientCo.You ain't seen me, right!Comment
