This is really unfair to the employees. They weren't aware of the misdemeanor done by the company. They should be immune from the penalties. It's only fair that the inspectors made this judgement, but I hope that they don't include the regular employees. Things are really looking bad for the East Coast retailers.

I don't think the employees are impacted. It is the employees that Fair Work are trying to protect.
