I think it’s that if the switching fails, I’ll be left without any job and risk homelessness. And that the general narrative I hear is that “we should be grateful to have a job at all”.

    That’s a breach of contract. It’s illegal, unless the contract also says they are allowed to do that. Talk to an expert about it.

    Employers will test the waters to see what they can get away with. They can go on breaking the law for decades, until someone calls them up on it.

      It does not

      Talk to an expert about it.

      If talking to an expert involves money, can’t afford it. Unless you mean like a gov labour bureau

        There must be some kind of regulator or ombudsman. This sort of thing. Or maybe a local union?

        If somebody is breaking the law to exploit you, there must be a legal way to report and stop that, and eventually get compensation money probably.
