‘Self-serve buffets and pandemics don’t mix’: restaurants fined for breaches – Sydney Morning Herald
The Butchers Buffet restaurant in Strathfield has been fined $5000 after SafeWork inspectors found diners sharing plates, utensils and trays.
The restaurant did not have a safety marshal and there were no advertised limits on the number of patrons allowed inside at a time, SafeWork said.
Tables and chairs were not spaced sufficiently apart and CCTV footage showed a lack of physically distancing when diners helped themselves at the buffet.
SafeWork NSW health and safety director Sarina Wise said breaches were unacceptable.
