ELI5: How does increasing wages of service workers contributes to inflation if no new money is being printed but just being redistributed.

Edit: Basically what Ive learned is that this can't be explained simply lol. But I understand that it can potentially increase demand for certain basic needs.

inflation doesnt necessarily have anything to do with the amount of money printed.

instead it is calculated by comparing the prices for various goods and services.

if you increase the wages the workers providing those goods get, those goods most likely get more expensive, thus by definition inflation increases.
