A Sydney-based cleaning company is facing near-record penalties after it was found to have exploited vulnerable employees.

Brothers Rosario and Enrico Pucci have both been fined, while Grouped Property Services has been penalised nearly half a million dollars for underpaying employees, many of them foreign workers with limited English.
