Fair Work Ombudsman says most breaches are accidental
A measured approach from the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) has led 19 truck drivers in the NSW Riverina back-paid a total of $24,600 without the need for prosecution, the organisation says today.
The drivers were found to have been underpaid their allowances − including for loading and unloading − over an 18-month period. When inspectors contacted the business and explained its obligations, the truck drivers were each reimbursed amounts between $200 and $3350, the organisation says.
