Offering more money for labor causes more people to work.
Forcing an employer to pay more money per worker doesn’t magically mean the employer can employ more workers, it simply means he has to pay more for however many workers he would have hired anyway. Furthermore, as I mentioned here, having to pay more for each worker is going to encourage the employer to look for ways to reduce his need for labor.
