The operator of some Sandy Beach blueberry farms has been ordered to come up with more than $46,000 in back pay.
The Fair Work Ombudsman determined almost 140 seasonal workers were short-changed between July 2014 and January this year.
According to the ombudsman, the employer – trading as K S Benning and Sons – failed to pay the correct wages and entitlements.
As well as reimbursing workers, the company must now follow strict guidelines and make a $5,000 donation to the Adele Residential Treatment Program.
