I’m not like a super political person, and from my understanding its the idea that if I make a $10 thing for the bossman, but only get $1 that is wage theft?

But like, when I took the job I knew how much I was going to make?

Or is it like, people are literally not getting their paychecks?

I’m slightly inebreated, lazy, and don’t want my algorithms to start becoming politically charged from googling and youtubing this. I’m already collapse aware and my mental health is ultra fragile.

Help me Lemmy wan kenobi, you’re my only hope.

    Great answer.

    I think one of the most common forms is when employers coerce employees to clock out before they’re actually done with work. Super common in places where employees need to do end-of-shift tasks like cleaning up their station, pass through security checkpoints, etc.
