@br00t4c I’m definitely not the target market for a Hemmes establishment especially if they diddle their workers.

“The lawsuit, brought by Adero Law on behalf of hospitality workers in 2019, alleges Merivale relied on an invalid Employee Collective Agreement, rather than the relevant industry award, to underpay up to 14,000 workers between 2013 and 2019…

“In March, Merivale reached a without-admission settlement with Adero Law, agreeing to a lump sum payment of $18,000,000 to cover all damages and costs − almost half of which is likely to go towards lawyers and the litigation funder.”
