The Employment
Relations Authority has penalised an employer $40,000 for substantial under
recording of working hours. The employer
had 16 workers and under recorded the hours for each on a daily basis. The 16 employees were short-paid $87,000 as a
result.
The $40,000 penalty was
imposed because of the number of breaches, size of the harm done and as a
deterrent to the employer and other employers from similar actions.
