Contractors losing their jobs?

I'm not worth the same pay as a permie dev.

I'm not working for the same pay as a permie dev.

Really? Even if it's a choice between unemployment or earning a respectable wage?

I've said it before, there's such a sense of entitlement on CUK.

[LondonManc]

Contractors losing their jobs?

Yes, being made redundant by their Limited Company.

No, of course not.

I'm not doing the same job as a permie to get the same wage while he gets all the benefits; pension, holidays, job securidy and all that while I get none of them.

Unless, of course, after 1 month we become permies with all the bells and whisltes even if we're going to be there for 6 moinths.

That's going to make pension planning just a liddle bit complicated.

We'd end up with 200 pensions each worth £50 after fees.

We'd end up with 200 pensions, each owing £50, even after after fees.

No, of course not.

As far as I'm aware AWR says they will have to pay you all the benefits the perm staff get if you are on the books as a temp. Will be a massive headache for end clients.

Here's a novel idea. You could do the same job as a permie for the same wage while getting all the benefits; pension, holidays, job security.

I think this is called "being a permie"? I've heard quite a few people manage to make ends meet that way.
