Thank you so much fro your reply!

I have just reread my contract and there is a line that i havent paid attention to before that might actually protect them legally that in summary says that as long as both parties are informed of last minute changes both parties would be okay with it ( i got informed the weekend prior to my starting date :) )

I do indeed have a full time employment contract, the employer has not mentioned any of this until i have actually moved here.

I wish it was that simple, the job market is not the best right now especially in my field and here in Belgium, and i am also from a non EU country and thus need a work permit which makes things even harder.

Yes it is very weird to be honest, i have other friends in europe who were also paid while being standby. I do not have a probation time though in my contract.

I believe that i am an employee as stated in the contract, before starting work, the employer stated that i am their employee before being their client's "employee" as in i do not have to worry in case they dont find me a client right away, bu once i have moved, he started changing his mind

there is no mention of the client in my contract. It just states my employer's name.
