The Star Entertainment Group said its Sydney property will be closed, apart from limited hotel facilities, for seven days after the New South Wales government ordered a stay-at-home order due to rising Covid cases.
The government has imposed the order in four local government areas.
The Star will continue to pay staff during the seven day stay-at-home period. The stay-at-home orders follow the introduction of the 1 person per 4m2 rule, the mandatory wearing of masks, and the implementation of the ‘no drinking while standing’ rule pursuant to public health orders made on 23 June 2021.
