Rachelle “Rocky’ Hair” was the first female bartender at Swillhouse venues and Jenna Hemsworth was Australian Bartender of the Year in 2018. They won’t be silenced.
They’re the two talented, brave women from the hospitality industry who have decided to go public with their claims against their former employer Swillhouse.
“As the first female staff member across many of the venues, I was essentially the canary in the coal mine,” Hair said. “If had learnt and changed ten years ago and the assaults and harassment had stopped with me, I would have let this go.”But she said the company has failed to change its culture or acknowledge the harm caused, giving her “no choice but to personally do my part for the younger people that have been exposed to this since”.
“These incidents are still occurring,” she alleged. “I find nothing ‘juvenile’ or ‘regrettable’ about it.” “I stand by what I said in this article,” Hemsworth said, referring to this masthead’s investigation. One victim provided photos showing the injuries she says she sustained after an alleged assault by another Swillhouse employee.
