One of Australia’s leading mining companies, BHP, has admitted to underpaying 28,500 Australian workers’ allowances and entitlements dating back to 2010.

In a June 1 statement, the company said a preliminary review suggested that former and current workers were incorrectly deducted six days’ leave on average during the 13-year period.
