Ovolo pay day

OVOLO Hotels is putting its employees first by passing on the Fair Work Commission’s mandated wage increase for award workers three months ahead of the Oct deadline.

Although the Commission chose to postpone the increase for industries “at risk” such as hospitality (TD 15 Jun), Ovolo will still pass on the 4.6% increase to all its award workers from today.

“We’re all about shiny happy people,” CEO Dave Baswal said.

“Hospitality is a people business; we are nothing without our team - they are our biggest asset,” he added.
