One side is following the contract. One side is not, and they face minimal fines for it, which incentivizes further violations. Breaking the contract as an employee has a clearly tangible risk: loss of employment. There is no equivalent risk to the employer.


yes, I was going to say that it seems odd to compare the two things, since the obvious response from an employer would be to fire someone who wasn't working enough, or at least to bake in the fact that your employees will not be 100% productive all day into their pay.

If someone is paying you less than minimum wage you don't have much recourse. In fact, in my state, for the employer to get in trouble for a violation like this, you need to show that they did it intentionally. But there is also no requirement for them to furnish you a pay stub, so it is essentially impossible to do that.
