Not really, I do this all the time but each contract is for that specific project. Been here nearly 2 years and have had contracts ranging from 6 weeks to 7 months.Blood in your poo -
Well it is a fine line. I would say after a few changes and the attitude the client you are an enduring resource to them then you are going to have a fight on your hands to prove otherwise. Yes I agree it shouldn't be like this but HMRC has to draw the line somewhere and the closer you get to that line the harder your fight is. Not saying the cases are not winnable but it does look bad to them.Originally posted by Sausage Surprise View PostNot really, I do this all the time but each contract is for that specific project.

I am also not allowed to park on site (had the car broken into again yesterday) and get fleeced in the staff canteen (cheaper prices for permies).Originally posted by northernladuk View PostWell it is a fine line.

I reckon I'd be ok as there's a big distinction between perm and tractor at this client co.Blood in your pooComment

Before IR35 most contractors moaned about no parking/canteen etc. rights but this can only be a good thing now. Make up some sarnies and buy an old jalopy preferably old enough not to be taxed at 'green' levels and not require an MOT ........ also helps to set the scene when you ask for a rate increase!Originally posted by Sausage Surprise View PostI am also not allowed to park on site (had the car broken into again yesterday) and get fleeced in the staff canteen (cheaper prices for permies).

Thanks for comments all.
I have asked the agent to provide a new schedule to commence from the date when I move over to new project and they have also asked if I would like the project name specifically in the amended schedule. I am guessing this would be a benefit to maintain some distance from client co in terms of d&c but thought would check first.
So should the project be named in the schedule ?______________________
