To set the scene, based in Australia, NSW working as a 3rd year mature aged apprentice boilermaker.
I took a job back in April this year, as a step to getting in to mining.
Part of my salary negotiations included a fuel card on the successful completion of probation (after 3 months). This was in the job advertisement, and subsequently in my letter of offer. The fuel card was $400/month (AUD), tax free.
I had my probation meeting, and my employer told me they weren't going to honour the fuel card clause, nor were the willing to negotiate for financial compensation for thus.
A number of tradies that started around the same time as me also believed they were getting fuel cards, as it was part of the job advertisement, although there's wasn't put in writing in their letters of offer or contracts.
I'm now still here 2 months after probation and really starting to loathe the job, and the company.
What do I do?
TLDR; employer fails to deliver on salary conditions. What do?
