An increasing number of Brits, including umbrella company contractors, seek a better work-life balance, according to a recent survey by Robert Half International.
Umbrella company contractors might be concerned to learn that recruiter Hays made a rather embarrassing gaffe last week when one of its employees sent an email to staff at the Royal Bank of Scotland disclosing the pay rate of RBS contractors!
