Hello everyone,
Just need a little advice as i'm not sure on my rights here.
I was working freelance as a Graphic Designer for a little over a year when I managed to secure a decent client who then offered me a full-time role at their company leading their digital print department.
The work i was doing for the client originally was only ever for brochures. I was in the middle of finalising a brochure for the company just before I started my new role.
The problem is, I put in a lot of hours for this particular brochure but now the client/my new employer wants me to give them the finalised brouchure which i started when i was freelance - making brochures is not in my job description.
I still do bits and bobs on the side as part of my freelance business outside of work. So do i invoice my employer for the work/time which was done before i began employment and complete the brochure outside of work? Or do i complete the work in-house with no charge and pretend i'm absolutely fine with that? I feel in limbo with this one.
Thanks in advance!
