The Fair Work Ombudsman is in the process of pursuing the owner of an Italian restaurant in Terrigal for failing to pay back nine underpaid employees, including two juniors aged 16 and 19. On top of the total of $12,178.00 owed, the owner could also be facing exposure to penalties, which range from $10,200 per contravention for an individual and $51,000 per contravention for a body corporate.
