This one hasn't affected me yet, but by looking at the current ads on jobserve, I get the feeling it could do in future contracts!
I've seen a few contracts pop up with no specific project/work defined, instead it says something like "you will be working on a number of projects".
Now I know how important it is to define a list of things to do as far as possible, and not just be someone who does whatever the client asks whenever they want.
So, I'm curious as to how one would go about a contract such as this. I wouldn't feel comfortable with having a clause that allows the client to move me around projects as they see fit.
If this has affected others, how have they handled this? Fight to get specific projects or deliverables listed? Suck it up and just accept the fact that the contract is an IR35 fail?
