That’s just an example where I heard cash wages were normal. The law is strange because it just says cash wages are acceptable if it’s the norm in an industry. The law does not list industries where that’s a norm, so if someone is prosecuted someone would have to convince a court whether or not cash is normal for the line of work.
Bank transfer are just more convenient.
Cash wages are used when people (sometimes on both sides of the transaction) are trying to avoid the law: off-the-grid constructions, waiters, etc.
