I moved over 9 months ago from Denmark to UK. I was first

Hello Waqas, the two contract will be treated entirely separately. You were initially employed as a permanent employee and subject to the contract of employment in place. That particular employment terminated (I presume) in August and then you moved over to be a contractor, even though the employer was the same. So once the employment contract terminated in August, that is when the 6 month restriction would have started to count from. The employment as a contractor would have been governed by the new service contract and only the clauses in it would be relevant to the employment commencing 1 September. So even though the employer was the same, the employments would have been different and each would be governed by a separate agreement. So if the contracting position only terminated recently, it would not be subject to the same 6 month post-termination restriction as that only applied to your employment as an employee, which terminated sometime last year. The relevant period for the restriction would be 6 months from the ate of termination of the employee contract. I hope this has answered your query. I would be grateful if you could please take a second to leave a positive rating (3, 4 or 5 stars) as that is an important part of our process and recognises the time I have spent assisting you. If you need me to clarify anything before you go - please get back to me on here and I will assist further as best as I can. Thank you
