My agency doesn't pay me on time, like they are supposed to pay me every two weeks. They are like one month delayed. Only when I call them that's the only time they will deposit a check. It's been going on for nearly 3years. Now I would like to resign and apply to another agency. The patients family says if I'm resigning, they will also terminate their contract with my agency and follow me to another agency. they want me to continue taking care of their Mom since I've been with her for 3years. Now I'm current agency is saying there might be a conflict if we quit both. Can you please enlighten me. I don't know what to do. Thanks
For the client, that client might have to pay a *fee* to the current agency if they follow you to a newer agency, even if they can cancel their current contract.
I am surprised you have stayed three years with an agency that wasn't paying on time. I would have resigned after the first few months.
On your own employment contract, if you go to another agency and take the customer with you, there are buy-out fees. Read carefully.
