[sammy2020]

Hi,
Can I get urgent help please.
My agency called on Friday evening saying that my role is now deemed inside IR35. I joined only on last Wednesday. I told them on Friday that I will think about whether to accept inside role or not. Agreement is signed and mentions outside IR35. Today I...

Received a new contract for review today. 6 months, 1 week's notice either side but with a trial period of 7 days on the schedule.

Not seen a contract ever with a trial period specified, and as this is a company I have not worked with before am a bit uneasy. This is via an agency - anyone...

Hi,

In my existing contract I had the agency amend the notice period from 20 days client, 10 days contractor, to which the client agreed on a 20/20 even split.

I requested this as I believed an even period would be better for outside IR35 purposes

I am about...

A friend of mine (non-contractor) told me about a contractor where he works who rang into client telling him that his step brother had died and he wouldn't know when he woud be back in work.

Hi All.

First time posting here and a (probably) really elementary question...

I've been on my first ever contract for the last 4+ years (permanent employment whole career up to then) and I may now be looking to leave.

If I get the gig I went for, I'll...

I am 2 months into a 6 month contract (renewed after having done 3 months). The rates ok but the work I have moved onto doing has not turned out to be what I was expecting, as well as being pulled into another 'project' that is tulip. I've never pulled out of a contract before but this time I want...

[LaunchpadBS]

I'm having an issue with one of my public sector clients I've been working with for the past 5 months, they're claiming a previous manager messed up the Purchase Order when my contract was renewed, and they've now run out of budget to pay me. It get's a little more complicated as the team I'm working...

[Willy Win]

I'm two weeks into a 6 month contract which I'm not at all happy with and want to terminate (notice period is 1 month from me). As I want to be fully available for pursuing other contracts, am I legally able to give notice of termination to agency (whom my contract is with) but then not go on site/...

[fivefootseven]

Let's say I was in a lengthy contract with a 4 week notice period on both sides.
And let's imagine I wanted to get out of the contract really quickly, within the notice period.
This would be breaking the terms of the contract, and I would be a scoundrel.
- So what is the penalty,...

[vj12354]

Hi,

I'm a contractor and my contract state a 14 days notice period should be given in order to end the service, before the contract end date. My question is how much penalty needs to be paid to settle the early termination?

[mikeh1163]

Hi,
Does anyone know whether it is legal for a company to force you to leave prior to the end of your given notice period once you have given notice. ie you give the company written notice of your intention to terminate in 4 weeks time as per your contractual obligations and then they come back...

Hi all,
