How can you prevent recruitment agencies sending your C.V. to your current end client ?
I was just wondering, as during my travels I've heard of a few stories where contractors are taken into an office at the current client site to discuss why they have sent their C.V. out there to potentially look for another contract whilst their current contract is still in force.

Now many of you will probably be thinking, that a contractor has every right to do this as it is his business yet the end client "manager" of course doesn't see it this way, they see it as someone who can disrupt the flow of work and potentially damage their own permie position. I'm asking what steps can one take to prevent your C.V. from landing at the current end client contract site and what recourse is there if say the end client receives your current C.V. from a malicious recruitment agency and then terminates your contract on the basis that you are looking for work elsewhere ?
Is there anyway you can put in some legal jargon on your C.V. that stops agencies sending your C.V. to your current end client ? can you sue the recruitment agency if they have deliberately sent your C.V. to the current end client and you have lost your contract as a result of this (and you have strong proof that points to this) ?
This is all hypothetical (it hasn't happened to me but I know quite a few people who have been embarrassed when this has happened to them and in one case sacked on the spot).
