Within 14 days after receiving the notice, the employer must pay the authority the unpaid amount stated in the notice. Maximum penalty—60 penalty units. If an employer contravenes subsection (3) , in addition to imposing a penalty, a court may order the employer to pay the authority the unpaid amount. The unpaid amount stated in the order may be recovered by the authority as a debt owed by the employer.
