That should be full costs, probably paid to a subcontracting company.

Are you implying that it wasn’t going to a worker, that it was just fraud?

I'm implying that workers are often employed temporarily though a subcontracting agency, rather than being in a permanent role. The daily costs is fully inclusive.

Both companies should keep track of what resources are assigned where and paid for.
