need help.. please

I recently started a job in this crap office!!!
I did not work the monday as it was bank holls, so started on a tuesday I worked the rest of the week and decided not to go back.
The money was crap the job was depressing and my boss sat next to me for the whole week saying things that were totaly unprofetional and bordering on sexual harrasment..
Any how now that I am refusing to go back they are saying that they will not pay me because I did not work a full week, is this right? by law I mean?
Pleas anyone who has any ideas let me know.
Thanks

pompom,

Did you sign any kind of a contract or receive any kind of offer letter?

Did it say that you would be paid daily, weekly, monthly?

Did it set out notice periods for both parties?

If they didn't give you a contract, then your letter of engagement or offer is effectively your contract. Did you comply with everything asked of you in that letter?

Morally, they should pay you. Legally, if you have not fulfilled the terms of the contract you had with them, they are not obligated to pay you.

Others may correct me, but i think that it about the essence of it. Would cost you a lot more to do anything about it legally than you would be due in pay. Sorry.
