    Extension, or not to be....

    Last two weeks of contract.

    Verbally advised extension at end of last week, but not heard anything since. Not a word. All I have is an email advising extension likely, but not signed off.

    So, I need to start to think about the implications of working out of contract if the extension does not get formalised in time.

      Alternatively, you could chase the people who are supposed to sort it out on time

        Not sure what the question here is.

        If you get extended -> Create a boomed thread.

        If you don't get extended -> Let me know what role you would like on the CUK benchers thread.

            Flop your old boy out. Walk around the office shouting "come on - you either want it or you don't".

                If your contract requires you to have

                Professional Indemnity
                Employer's Liability

                Then I would not be working without a signed extension, unless you receive a written waiver of these terms. The potential exists that if you work without a formal contract, then you might be breaching the terms of your Insurance.

                Personally, I would not work without a formal extension, in writing.
                I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

                  Amazing how many people forget this fact.

                    Nah. Overkill in some circumstances.

                    If its an extension, an email confirming such from a relevant person i.e. agency or client is good enough IMHO.

                    Of course, if agent says dont go in then dont - they are the payers after all.

                    Some clients if you wait the paperwork signed sealed and delivered you're going to lose a LOT of billing days for no reason.
