I have been working freelance (self employed) since September so I am in my 6th month.
Things have been good and have had a consistent flow of work. But All of this work has been from one company. I am working at their office on the usual 9 till 5 day, 5 days a week. At the moment I see no end to the work.
My questions are.
1 - What are the laws about working for one person. I know this is an issue.
2 - Is this more of an issue for me or for my employer?
I have recently started freelancing due to redundancy. Fortunately I have a steady flow of work for several months.
In my previous job I was earning £12 an hour (£90 a Day) but that was full time and I was getting full holiday & sick pay entitlement. I also had virtually no travel expenses.
I have already done 10 days work at my previous rate but informed my employer that I would like to review this.
I am aware I should be earning enough to cover my holidays etc that I was previously getting on a full time basis.
Can anyone give me advice on the going rates at the moment. I have 5 years experience and have worked with many of the clients before.
