Police officials are reviewing a staff party held at a western Sydney station in July while the city was under strict lockdown to determine if public health orders were breached.
On Friday more than a dozen employees at Mount Druitt Police Area Command gathered together in a brightly decorated common room to share buffet platters of food.
Pictures from the event posted online show staff around a party table at the station, located in one of the 12 Covid-hit LGAs of concern, as they celebrate Wear It Purple Day to support the LGBTQIA+ community.
'Happy Wear it Purple Day. Follow your rainbow and start the conversation,' a Facebook post by Mt Druitt PAC's said.
While emergency services are exempt from the no gathering rule, the exemption was designed so they can carry out their work.
Office functions, however, are discouraged under public health orders and the state's chief health officer has repeatedly said office workers should not gather in lunchrooms or tearooms.
'It is important that all workplaces consider their Covid-safe plans,' Dr Kerry Chant said on Monday.
'Make sure you are not sharing the tea room, you are wearing masks, you have four-metre density and make sure you do not attend when you have symptoms.'
The post was removed shortly after being shared.
NSW Police said they are looking into the event to make sure employees complied with Covid restrictions.
'The NSW Police Force is aware of the images and an internal review is underway to determine if any there are any breaches of Public Health Orders,' a spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia.
Mt Druitt is located in the City of Blacktown LGA - an area with one of the highest rates of Covid cases since Sydney's second wave delta outbreak began in mid-June.

Australia may be beyond saving when this mental illness,LGBTQIA awareness, controls innocent Aussies!
This makes my tagline even more valid.
We have been witnessing the collective LGBTQxyz Gay Rape of Australia.
Laughing all the way, they are…
Let’s not be next.
Just following orders

There’s something evil about liberals and their desire to impose harsh rules on citizens - while ignoring those rules for themselves... Shades of ‘the French Laundry’/California ‘elites’.... Nancy Pelosi and her hair dressers... effling liberals ... thugs
