Hourly contract

Hi,

 

I have a client and I have been working with him for the past few weeks. I have an hourly contract of 15 hours per week. However, this week I will only be able to do 3 hours and not all of the hours because we have an issue that needs to be solved on the client end and therefore, I cannot work.

 

Will the client be charged the whole 15 hours this week or will I get any negative rating because I will work only a few hours and not fulfilling my part of the contract?

 

Thank you in advance

15 hours is the time you can bill, but you can work 5 or 15 depending on the time you need to finish the job. The client will pay the hours that you work.
You´ll get a negative feedback if you don´t send the job in time.

Your client will be billed for the billable hours i.e. based on your actual working hours. If your client has set a limit of 15 hours, it doesn't mean you have to work all those 15 hours. Make a mutual agreement with your client regarding your working hours and tasks.

You should discuss the requirements and tasks list accepting the contract. Make sure to communicate with the client and ask him to put a list of the tasks in the contract offer.
