No‑one has been prosecuted for wage theft since it became a crime. 2 inquiries want answers
"Wage theft became a federal crime on January 1 2025. Employers who deliberately “steal” from their workers’ pay can now be prosecuted and subject to hefty criminal fines, even jail time.

In case anyone needs to hear this:
If your overtime is given to you in lieu, but you can't use your lieu leave - you're being exploited and overworked.
