Work related (Annual leave)

[ILLaViTaR]

Hey guys.

From March 2007 I worked a part time shift as a kitchen hand until late may.
She gave me the decision of termination, or a casual position.

I signed the agreement to go casual, she said I'd get my annual leave in a few weeks.

My casual contract also said I will commence my casual position on June 2nd.

Today I was wondering why I hadn't received my annual leave so I decided to ring head office. I discovered that I am still listed as part time.

I was expecting something like this too happen, they have wriggled their way out of paying other part time employees their annual leave entitlements in the past (I have witnessed it not just heard).

I don't want to explain it on here but I know for a fact the reason I am still listed as part time is so they don't have to pay me out annual leave.

(Their plan was to hope that I forget about it like the other employees did).

Now here's the thing, she's trying to screw me and I have come up with the plan to screw her. I turn 19 next month and my pay takes a significant jump so my annual leave will have a nicer sum.

My plan is to claim it then, however I believe they will try to get out of it and merely tried to say the contract wasn't processed we will pay you the amount you had on June 2nd.

If the contract wasn't processed wouldn't it be void since I signed it on the condition to start my casual position on June 2nd which hasn't happen?

Keep in mind I'm part time still, that means I'm still entitled to 9hrs a week?
I haven't worked since May 28th because she told me I was casual.

Wouldn't that be illegal since I'm not casual? She can't have it both way.
