Pros
None currently - don't work for these people as a freelance counsellor if you want to get paid without enormous hassle
Kontras
Workplace Options like to pay late - or maybe never if they can get away with it? For counsellors in United Kingdom who have been paid late by Workplace Options, you can claim £40 for each late paid invoice in the last six years under the Late Payments Legislation (google it). Typically this will apply to invoices paid outside the limit specified in your contract - generally 30 days. You can also claim interest. If taken to court they will pay up for unpaid invoices, £40 compensation per late-paid invoices, including invoices which have already been settled, interest, and court fees. Don't be put off by their solicitors, who will try to bluff you into believing that you can't claim. Workplace Options have already been successfully taken to court - and they paid in full !
