ISGM is facing a class action, alleging that telecom workers endured financial losses stemming from a sub-contracting agreement with the company. Now, the court has approved a counter-claim against group members.
Litigation Lending, which is funding the action, details the following allegations:
- The arrangement falsely held that employees were, in fact, subcontractors.
- ISGM misused the Australian Apprenticeships Access Program.
The court has approved a counter-claim, alleging a bad faith action against ISGM.
Meanwhile, Shine Lawyers and Litigation Lending invite those telecom workers who have endured losses to register their interests in the class action.
