Doesn't wage theft imply they aren't paying the amount that they agreed to pay?


wage theft comes in many forms. Most would use it to describe the deprivation of any pay or benefits as agreed upon or required by law. So not paying benefits required, reclassifying legal status of workers to avoid paying things, not paying overtime correctly, etc.


they weren't paying the benefits required by law
