Advice on agency hourly rates wanted, please.

[ScummyMummy]

If a client is paying an agency £18 per hour for your services, how much should you ask the agency to pay you? Thanks in advance for any views.

errr.... about 13?

Cool. Ta quootie.

From my experience from working for agencies I would expect the employee to get £7 - £9 per hour, it is usually under 1/2 what the agency charge that is paid to their employees

If my company pay £250 a day, the worker gets around £200. At a guess of an £18 ph rate I reckon worker should get £13.50 - £15.00 ish.

Thanks all. It's helpful to have a range of views. Will categorically not work for less than £10 p.h. and have told the agency this from the outset so I think I'm going to ask for 13 and settle for 10-12.

lol @digression, batters!
