Restaurant fails to pay man €86k

AN award-winning restaurant has yet to pay a migrant worker the €86,000 it owes him after being found guilty of gross exploitation.

The Labour Court has ordered Amjad Hussein, trading as the Poppadom restaurant, to pay Muhammad Younis after hearing the restaurant made him work 77-hour weeks for below the minimum wage.

The Pakistani man said working at the Indian restaurant was like being “in a deep dark well”.
