An Australian burger chain is facing accusations of leveraging traineeship programs to keep its workers on low wages — a claim the company dismisses, saying they are "a great way to provide skills, knowledge and leadership expertise".

This is very reminiscent of the On The Run traineeship scandal that occurred in South Australia not long ago. Anyone know of other companies still using these traineeship loopholes to commit mass wage theft?
