Hello,
I am on a rolling 3mth contract that has been extended 3 times already. All is going well, client is really happy with what i do and they declare the will to continue the cooperation. Problem is over the course of the contract it has been tougher and tougher for them to assure internal funding for the extensions. At this point I cant trust that apart from their wishes and declarations they will raise the money for the next extension. We reached some level of 'stability' in the project progress where i guess they might want to try to move things forward on their own, at least for a bit. Since this is a contract it has a very short notice period (<10days). So even if they extended the next 3m chunk it feels they could cut it off just after the beginning of the extension for whatever reason, such as shortage of funds. Is there any wording/clause I could insist on that would assure that they actually have the money for whole of the new extension and they wont cut me off? Because of this instability I am looking for new roles now. I know I agreed for the 3m chunks/extensions approach in first place, but being on the inside gave me extra insight to the dynamics of this place and raised my awareness/alertness especially recently.
Regards
