Victorian worker back-paid more than $19k

The Fair Work Ombudsman has announced that an agricultural worker at Myrrhee in regional Victoria has been back-paid $19,100 following intervention by the Agency.

The employee lodged a complaint with the Fair Work Ombudsman for non-payment of long service leave and annual leave entitlements.

After Fair Work inspectors contacted the business and explained its obligations, the worker was promptly paid all money owed without the need for further action.

Fair Work Ombudsman Executive Director, Michael Campbell, said the business has now put processes in place to ensure this mistake is not repeated.
