HTSPE do not normally ask independent contractors to accept pay-as-paid terms. However, in order to protect the company against the possibility that the client may reject a contractor’s work, we must reserve the right to make a 20% retention on all invoices submitted against satisfactory completion of the assignment. It will be clearly stated in the contract terms where this retention is to be applied.
