A waiter working at the wedding venue that was fined $5000 after management allowed more than 600 guests at a reception has revealed staff feared they would also get penalised.
Norman, who has been working at the Imperial Paradiso on Spencer Street in Fairfield for a little more than a month, said employees were incredibly concerned they would get in trouble despite having no clue management had breached restrictions until guests arrived.
“I was really worried about getting a personal fine,” he told NCA NewsWire.
“I didn’t know the amount of people who were coming and I don’t control the number of people, I’m not a manager.
“We all knew once (we saw the guestlist) but as a normal employee if I said anything it wouldn’t have worked.
“It was out of my hands.”
On Monday, NSW Police confirmed the venue had been fined $5000 for allowing between 600 and 800 guests attend a wedding reception on Saturday night.
The ritzy venue is complete with a white dance floor, crystal chandeliers and holds up to 1100 people, according to the website for the operator, Paradiso Receptions.
