Staff at the Luxury Escarpment Group of Blue Mountain Hotels have been warned against speaking to the media after the Herald Sun exposed migrant workers are being exploited.
The Fair Work Ombudsman raided the hotel group’s operations last month and found they were taking wages from migrant workers through overpriced accommodation and unpaid overtime.
A previous employee of the group, Arindam Biswas, says management are threatening to sue staff if they revealing anything else, as they have signed a contract saying they can’t speak to the media.
