You must work in an unreasonable place if you are expected to clean out your desk at a moments notice

The organisation I currently work for has a need to get rid of people immediately if they become a security risk. Practically this doesn't happen as we have to jump through a number of hoops to get our security clearence before we are allowed in the door.

With regards to conditions, I'm assuming you work through an agency if so any work cover claims are claimed through your agency.

Work cover and professional indemnity are covered by my PTE company, not my agency. Your right, if your just going agency to organisation then your agency pays it albeit from the amount scalped from your rate. Insurance works out to be next to nothing and the benifit of not paying payroll tax far outweighs the cost.

do you know of many IT professionals who work 40 hours a week
|
The permanent employees in my current place of employment don't get overtime. They get time back. However I negotiated an hourly rate so they pay for it if I work over 40hrs. I have worked for a daily rate before and been taken advantage of, not something I wish to repeat.
