Hi
So clientco has decided to throw out all its contractors and go with SI's only from July 1st. I'm one of the "lucky" ones with an extension until end of October.
Today, the project sponsor suggests the SI team and I go to Asia for a week (16 hours door to door each way) to meet with the support team whom will support the system when our project goes live.
Enquiring a little further I'm told that all travel will be
(a) Economy.
(b) At weekends on my own time.
(c) At my own expense to reimburse from the company.
(d) No travel time or TOIL
(e) Long days in Asia where they do the Asia day and spill over into european time.
There is nothing in my contract re foreign travel and no chance of a renewal in November.
So, I'm looking for advice on whether to suck it up or say sorry but this is not reasonable and push for 2 days invoicing.
Thanks - iguy.
