A Victorian carpenter, Caleb Geoffrey Stubbs, who runs CS Carpentry in Ge Georgetown, is being taken to the Federal Circuit and Family Court in Melbourne over allegations that he threatened to sack a teenage apprentice who asked for sick leave, underpaid that apprentice and another casual worker, failed to pay public‑holiday and leave entitlements, breached pay‑slip laws, and did not comply with a Fair Work Ombudsman compliance notice. The Fair Work Ombudsman’s investigation began after the two 18‑year‑old workers sought help, and Stubbs now faces potential fines of up to $8,250 for the compliance breach and $16,500 for each alleged pay‑slip and adverse‑action contravention, as well as a court order to rectify outstanding payments.
