Is it an hourly rate - how much are they paying you?

Surely it will say in your contract? Or just speak to them about it to find out.
I'm freelance, though not in recruitment, and I decide on my hours etc. I have regular shifts for a client and, if i wanted to switch days or whatever, I'd let them know. However, it probably would be a snag if I wanted to do, say, two days and they need three days. Then it would become a case of either doing what they need or losing the work altogether.
