University of Wollongong starts distributing $10.4 million to 4,500 underpaid workers since 2016.

The University of Wollongong (UOW) has begun distributing $10.4 million to about 4,500 workers who were underpaid since 2016. Mainly affecting casual staff, the payments were delayed due to a thorough validation process, with some still waiting until March 2025. UOW faces financial challenges including a $169 million payment for exiting a student accommodation development, a $44 million write-down in its Hong Kong campus value, and reduced international student revenue.
