Hi Forums,
This would be my second contract, but the first was very different. In the first I was a Sole Trader who invoiced the client company directly. My new position, should it work out, would be via an agency.
I read an excellent book on contracting over the weekend, and spoke to a friend. From these sources, I understood that my contract would be with the agency. I supply time sheets, and they pay me. Client non-payment to the agency would not be my concern. However, I notice a clause on the paperwork that if the agency is not paid, they won't pay me. Is this normal, or lawful in the UK?
Thanks,
