NAB found its payroll problem in 2019 and kept underpaying staff until 2026
National Australia Bank underpaid about 66,000 current and former staff A$127 million in wages over 14 years. With interest and superannuation the bill is about A$169 million. The bank settled with the Fair Work Ombudsman, so it will not face a court or a court penalty.
