Ladies & Gents,
If I get No Termination from my previous company by first March does this mean that my contractual agreement stays the same i.e Same Day rate etc with the new company because the Previous hasnt Terminated??.
Thanks for all replys by the way I appreciate the help from all

[QUOTE=DirtyDog;1878822]Then you either accept the new contract on offer, or you don't. If you don't accept the new contract, then your client has the choice of either keeping you on the same contract, or terminating the contract. If they terminate the contract, then they should do that in line with what the terms of the contract say.

If they turn around and say a lower wage, Then what am I entitled to do if its supposed to come under same terms and conditions?
This is what being in business is about - you negotiate. If you cannot form an agreement, then one party needs to terminate the contract.

Given the nature of where you work, you should check the contract to see what the jurisdiction is in case of dispute. You should then check the contract law for that jurisdiction.[/QUOTE]

Originally posted by bluenose81 View PostAm I right in thinking if my current company do not terminate my agreement by the 1st February (in the agreement it states 4 weeks written notice)
So Then I am entitled to claim 4 weeks full pay for not terminating My Contract if they Do not Terminate?

Everyone is confused onboard as it is including the permanent staff cuss it has been sprang like a blink of an eye. ( We all do think thou that the company has known about this a long time and just lied to everyone.
The company I am currently with is in England UK but I work abroad overseas for them in the Middle east.
Thanks

Originally posted by bluenose81 View PostHi,
all they said was they will review us until JUNE then more likely get rid of us.
So is it correct they must continue the same agreement as im currently on same wage etc daily rate and if they don't do that then I guess I have a case.??
IM just trying to Plan ahead because I know that if I was with this current company they would of kept us but because its a new company theyre changing everything and practically bringing their own in.

IANAL but I don't think you would have entitlement to 4 weeks pay if the new company is taking you on under the same terms and conditions as the previous company - the liability to give 4 weeks notice of termination would simply pass to the new company.

Hi All, I am new to the Forums and new to Ltd Company contracting and am looking for advice on the following :-
Im Currently offshore until 14th February abroad
I am a Limited company contractor for an Offshore shipping company client whom ive been with for over a year, My signed contract states I MY NAME am a self employed consultant to Their COMPANY NAME Ltd, or any other group company (Their company name).

a. as provided by the terms of Agreemenet.......b. By either party giving to the other No less than 4 weeks Prior written Notice.
The company agreement I have here is in the name only of the company im currently with however they are being taken over by another company foreign who are going to take over 1st march which is when new terms and conditions of New company should come in therefore The other company needs to provide me with a new agreement...(Am I correct in thinking this?)............ The new company have said by word of mouth so far they want to keep us (Me and my back to back) until June 2014 on the same terms of engagement as previous company.............However...................
Am I right in thinking if my current company do not terminate my agreement by the 1st February (in the agreement it states 4 weeks written notice)
So Then I am entitled to claim 4 weeks full pay for not terminating My Contract if they Do not Terminate?
To me this is Breaching my current contract...I don't know if im right but please correct me if I am wrong as I am new this year to LTD Company so am still learning.
