If I am mistaken and it's a case of showing up **** companies for their ****ness then I am 100% behind it, but all too often those companies already know they are taking the piss, and they will draw up contracts regardless of personnel ethics. There is a choice to sign, or not. And I doubt many ppl desperate for a job will try to interpret beforehand.
I agree about a fight being tough. Lets face it, no decent lawyer in the land would touch this without warning Adam that its going to be very expensive and he's probably going to come away with nothing other than years of debt. A union would likely suggest a grievance and then assist with arbitration but I don't think Adams in a union. If Adam knows little about employment law, then basically he's wide open to be screwed over.

Who knows, perhaps this will all work out for the better for him. I somehow doubt it though. The sad part in all of this is, Adam is either going to have to walk away from a job he loves or he's going to be dismissed from a job he loves. What a frustrating place to be, especially when there are things he can do to protect his (supposedly) good reputation and even his future employment with this company.
