Hi
I've been working for a client through an agency. The client has repeatedly extended my contract so that I have been with them for 4 years. This year's budget however has been slashed so much that they can no longer keep me on, especially via the agent.
Am I okay to approach them independently. Are handcuffs still valid after a 4 year stretch. I can understand an agency trying to protect their business on 3, 6 or even 12 month contracts but they've earned their fare share after 4 years.
Another thing. If they want to hire "someone" on a fixed term, semi-permie basis, after four years will they still have to pay the agency.
