Is anyone out sourced or contracted or temp or basically non permanently employee of a company, but yet you work internal to the company and are permanently based there ?
Basically I work for an IT company that has various clients and with the IT company we don't get any benefits what so ever but the law firms that we are permanently based at have a long list of benefits.
private healthcare
gym membership
full pension
bonus
share scheme
loads of other benefits
35 days sick
What we get with it company:
Annual bonus if we are lucky.
20 days leave increases to 25, 1 a year.
It just seems so unfair that we don't get any of these benefits but have to work for the same company. I have been working at this place 3 years now.
What also annoys me is the attitude that the staff have with us. The secretaries and this other homosexual from accounts always ask the internal staff if they want a coffee but never ask us. I just think that is very rude, I asked them why they don't ask us if we want a coffee as we are just in the next office, they said because we work for X company. I don't realy see how that should make any difference.
I heard from this old guy at my previous job that there was a new regulation that forces employer to give contractors the benefits that normal staff get because employers were using this technically to avoid giving benefits to staff that were essentially perm staff.
