    Most day rates I've see don't mention of a number of hours a day. That sounds more like a staff contract?
    True enough, the contract mentions only hours per week.
    I inferred the daily hours by the expedient of dividing hours per week by 5.

      There's no way you're a contractor.

      I'd politely remind the agency a contract as been signed for x amount for 37.5 hours of labour a week but if this puts them in a difficult position with the client co I'd be happy to negotiate, I.e. Uplifted daily rate, 8 hour days Monday-Thursday for an early dart on Friday, etc.

        I have googled it, but no joy.

            I thought it was where he got his posts from.
