Why is it legal to not pay flight attendants until the doors are closed, or until take off?

The way I understand it, flight attendants aren’t paid as we board the plane. I’ve heard that their pay starts once the doors are closed on the plane. I’ve also heard they start getting paid once the plane takes off. Which is it, and how is it legal not to pay then as soon as passengers begin to board?
