The complaints range from participants claiming to have endured unsafe and unreasonable working conditions to being “bullied” by bosses into remaining on the show. In a TikTok video on Monday, bride Jacqui Burfoot accused the show of “breaching her human rights” during filming by claiming she was recorded while going to the toilet.
Several participants from previous seasons have since disputed this individual claim, however, and asserted that cast members can switch off their microphone packs during toilet breaks.
What happens next?
According to The MAFS Funny Podcast on Monday, SafeWork NSW has begun interviewing participants individually and is slowly approaching all cast members.
The podcast also claims that SafeWork NSW plans to request all unedited footage from production company EndemolShine Australia and that some participants are seeking financial compensation.
As for what this means for future seasons of MAFS, a production insider tells Yahoo Lifestyle that “nothing is for certain”.
