I would assume so low because the lack of people reporting it. Or they just don't know what is happening to them is illegal.

Deff a factor but don't forgot that the government is ran by people who are in the pocket of big biz. So there but so much enforcement that will ever be allowed. I bet most of it happens v smaller employers too lol

Just look at things like employment of migrant workers, independent contractor misclassifitions esp ride share and door dash..

Limp dick clowns

Also the DoL is perpetually under-resourced and short staffed. They aren't one of the "good" law enforcement agencies that get bipartisan support -- only the ones who beat up protestors get that kind of universal appeal, somehow. Even though funding to places like the IRS and DoL have insanely good return on investment.

We are a nation of temporally poor billionaires, why would we support funding of agencies that would engage in the pinata economics upon our fellow wealthy owners?

As designed. They don’t really want these laws to be enforced, so you create the department but starve it of resources so it can’t do its job effectively.
