Something like petty theft is generally not considered a white-collar crime, even though it is non-violent. These crimes take place at a higher level involving business operations and finances. Take a look below at some examples of white-collar crimes. Wage theft can occur in a variety of situations where workers do not receive the wages that they have contractually agreed upon. This can include things like not being paid for overtime, not getting a final paycheck after leaving a company, not being paid for all hours worked, or not being paid at all. Employers must pay their employees exactly how they have agreed to in their working contract, and a violation of this agreement is theft.
