hi, long time lurker first time poster. i have been contracting at a large bank for 5 months
last night it was the christmas night out. i was not able to make it in this morning. i was already pretty drunk by the time my manager left about 10pm and said there wasn,t much chance of me getting in today. he just laughed so i assumed it would be okay.
anyway next thing i am getting a call from HR
they are saying that i will not be getting paid for today and want a meeting on monday 9am to 'discuss the situation'
it is a 12 month contract so if they try to terminate can i say this is breach of contract?
also can they say they won't pay me for today? as far as i am concerned this was agreed in advance with my line manager?
