Gaffer off sick today. Will broach when he's back.
If i'd confirm agency i worked those 2 days can he raise a stink?
Thanks NSW, great advcie!
If he agrees to option B don't bother informing agency, just get him to sign the timesheets, unless agency is on site they will not know the difference
I would also push for B as it is the simplest one, no paperwork required and no need to involve HR, senior management, agencies and all the rest, is just an agreement between you and guy who signs your timesheets, two extra bits of advise though, don't wait to long to use up those days, people have short memories and don't forget to buy him a drink or two once you get agreement from him

A) Bill them for the days and they will pay. Then you just need to inform agent of this so they can process paperwork appropriately
B) Take two days off and bill them for those days

You don't have any real legal standpoint (though fact client let you on premises to work is indicative that they accepted to pay you for that work…but that’s messy) but to be honest unless Clients are jerks a 5 min convo with them should sort things out to either of the following
A) Bill them for the days and they will pay. Then you just need to inform agent of this so they can process paperwork appropriately
B) Take two days off and bill them for those days
If clients want to keep you around it's just common sense for them not to try obviously screw you over for a minor amount (relative to entire contract) because a minor cock up works to their advantage
Though whichever option they pick get it in writing
Agency not paying without agreement from client to pay for a non contracted period is common sence

Agency won't pay for 2 days
My contract was upto 27 March and just came to know Client co. extended it from 01 April to 01 May. I continued to work on 30 and 31 March. Client co's org is bit slow moving the paper work but i had not problem with previous extensions. Client co. always made sure there were no gap in extensions whenever contract got extended. But this time there is 2 days between consecutive extensions.
I would agree that Agency is correct if indeed Client co didn't include those 2 days in extension. I don't want to p1ss off client telling they messed up. But dont want to pick up fight with Agency as i don't have a 'legal' stand point. I ducked a 10% fake rate cut recently if you'd see my last thread. Any ideas how to play this?
Thanks
