The contract itself had a clause in it saying that certain marked sections did not apply if the worker had not signed the opt out form. It was interesting because you could see the exact differences between the opt out and non opt out contracts (handcuff clause was reduced, they would pay even without signed timesheets and they would pay if regardless of if the client had paid them or not).
Clear and transparent with no coercion to opt out - that is the way agencies should operate in my view.

With all agents I would be inclined to say verbally that you would opt out but if and when the contract paperwork arrives say you have changed your mind and you will not be signing the opt out and this is your legal right to withdraw the opt out before you start work. This will remove the temptation of the agent to downgrade you in favour of an opted out candidate...
