FIFO worker Min Chen was wrongly ordered to stay at home for 14 days self-isolation after he flew to Perth on an intrastate flight from the state’s north. Language barriers and questionable processes at Perth airport, along with an inadequate response to emails he sent to WA police meant that Min was forced to stay at home or face the prospect of a $50 000 fine of imprisonment. His boss wants answers and says Min deserves to be compensated. Plus, Nathan, a FIFO worker in Perth who hasn’t seen his young family since March 9 says FIFO workers in WA are treated like criminals, and that he and others like him want to know when the so-called hard border restrictions will be eased.
