Red Rooster to audit employee pay packets
Red Rooster Foods and its franchisees have agreed to self-audit employment records to ensure staff are paid correctly.
It is the third major fast-food chain, after McDonald’s and Domino’s, to sign up to a national audit in collaboration with the Fair Work Ombudsman.
Under the latest Pro-Active Compliance Deed, Red Rooster has agreed to audit a sample of employment records between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2011.
Red Rooster will work with franchisees to immediately correct any underpayments it might discover.
The process is expected to take until the end of August 2012.
