The Fair Work Ombudsman has recovered $368,666 for 102 underpaid security guards and supervisors after investigating companies engaged to provide security around Perth.
In July 2021, Fair Work Inspectors audited 13 security businesses to check their compliance with workplace laws, having received information including through anonymous reports and enquiries that there may be non-compliance.
From the 12 matters where investigations have concluded, inspectors found that nine businesses (75 per cent) were non-compliant.
