Hi,
My partner works as a medical locum through an agency. Lets call them Agency1. she has finished a 3 month contract and offered another 3. Current rate is £40 an hour and agency has a £10 an hour markup.
Another agency (lets call them agency2) whom she has used before have offered to pay her an extra £5 an hour and take a slightly reduced rate to ensure the end client (NHS) saves a bit of money. Therefore my partner gets £45 an hour and the agency I believe are taking £3 an hour.
There was nothing in her original contract with agency1 that states she has to renew with the original agency. I don't know if there is a clause in the contract between the agency1 and the NHS saying my partner has to continue working through.
Q As she is out of contract is she entitled to go through agency2?
Thanks
