Episode Details

Aldi faces a major class action settlement over unpaid overtime, offering $55 million to 32,000 workers across Australia who allegedly clocked in extra hours without pay. The union SDA led the case, claiming Aldi directed staff to work before and after shifts. Aldi has already paid $29 million and plans to pay another $26 million plus $1.5 million in legal fees. The court is expected to approve the deal in October, ensuring workers get paid for every minute they worked — a win for fairness and accountability after an internal audit uncovered the issue in 2022.
