A Perth nightclub owner who said female staff that did not wish to wear the club’s tight, low cut uniform should “find employment elsewhere” has publicly apologised after receiving a wave of criticism online.
Nightclub Amplifier Capitol first came under fire when screenshots were shared of a post from its private Facebook group, in which the Duty Manager criticised female employees for opting to wear the men’s high neck t-shirt, instead of the low-cut women’s shirt.
After a photo taken by a female employee that compared the two shirts went viral, club owner David Heaton said “the proposed changes were made in poor judgement, without full consideration of the implications for our female staff.”
