Are you aware of Wage Theft in your community? Are you
aware of someone who is not receiving appropriate wages
or paid superannuation, or appropriate holidays and
leave entitlements? This could be wage theft.
The Multicultural Communities Council of SA (MCCSA) has
been invited to provide a response to the Legislative
Council of SA Select Committee on Wage Theft in SA and
is seeking community feedback to support its submission.

Committee;

wage theft actually happen in South Australia

prevalent including industries, occupations, parts of
the state

State and Federal level for dealing with wage theft and
supporting affected workers
