A well-known Japanese restaurant and bar group in Melbourne's CBD has agreed to repay current and former staff $77,000 in wages it owed to almost 50 workers – most of them overseas students.
The repayment came after an investigation into underpayments by the Fair Work Ombudsman.
Izakaya Den restaurant in Russell Street, Nama Nama restaurant in Spring Street and the Hihou bar in Flinders Lane will repay wages to 48 staff, a spokesman for the ombudsman said, after the company recognised it had been underpaying them.
All of the staff were born overseas, and most were Japanese students, the ombudsman's spokesman said.
The repayment to staff came after one former employee, Yuka Odashima, complained to The Age in January that she had been paid a flat rate of $15 an hour for all hours worked.
This is below the minimum legal rate of $16.37, which climbs higher for night work after 7pm and higher still for early morning bar work. The pay rate excluded any tips that staff might have received.
Ms Odashima, who could not be contacted on Thursday, also went to the Fair Work Ombudsman, which looked into her complaint.
The operators of the bar and restaurant businesses voluntarily agreed to back-pay the staff.
One of the group's owners, Simon Denton, said in January that his restaurant staff were paid better than those in many similar venues in Melbourne's CBD. Many of his employees had worked at restaurants that had paid them $10 an hour, he said at the time.
Mr Denton also could not be reached for comment on Thursday. After meeting with the ombudsman, Mr Denton had agreed to voluntarily identify underpayments of past and present employees, the ombudsman's spokesman said. The largest back-payment to staff was $7641 for an employee who worked as a cook at Nama Nama.
Mr Denton told the ombudsman that the company had no intention of deliberately underpaying workers. The business has since hired a workplace specialist to advise on industrial relations, the ombudsman said.
