As far as I remember when EZ launched the ORY base, we all have been told that the contracts were a "french one". Damn, what a mess, indeed! So everybody signed a UK contract. As a CC working under a UK contract whilst living abroad, after each tx year, you can get your tax back through the Tax Refund process... Well if you can get an Italian contract, why not, but please check again all details like basic salary, sector etc... EZ is always trying to cut down the costs so, i would not be surprised to see new contracts with new conditions... Have a look carefully!
