All,
I am looking for advice regarding the situation with the client my company and I are currently contracted to.
To cut a long story short, started a 4 month contract which has been going well for first contract. Sat down with the client exactly 1 month out from the End Date of the contract to discuss next options.
From the clients perspective they didnt want to renew but instead wanted to offer me a permanent position. I declined the offer because 1. I had made the jump from perm to contracting so wasnt going back to perm after only 4 months & 2. the benefits on offer at this company for a permie are seriously lacking compared to other places I have worked.
This is now when the client has started to get rather arsey with me and has come to a head yesterday when I, out of courtesy, advised the client that I wont be available in the office on monday due to a very last minute but also very important hospital appointment for my fiance.
His response was that basically I cant be in the office. His reasoning is because I leave in a couple of weeks and needs to hand over work etc. I do still have 3 weeks here.
I am fully aware that I am not employed by the client because this would be of breach of IR35 regulations but I was just a little unsure on where I stand now when it comes to any breach of contract?
Any advice would be really grateful.
