The company is Astek Sud-Est. And yes, contractors are paid between contracts in normal contracting companies. In Sophia-Antipolis, where I was situated it was a common practice to put a clause in the contract that you won't be paid, even though by law should be paying you. In the end, when you are a foreigner and you barely speak the language it's rather difficult to seek your rights.
- namdnay 12y agoOK, so you were working for Amadeus through Astek. I think this is just a case of your service company exploiting you by trying to scare you. The clause they were talking about is that you don't get the extra 25e/day "fixed lunch and travel expenses" when you're not being pimped out. This is more a case of Astek defrauding social security (by hiding a major proportion of salary as expenses).
- toddkazakov 12y agoThe clause you are talking about was removed in favor of lunch coupons. I had a clause in my contract saying that I won't be paid between contracts. Seriously. Illegal or not that's the case.
