OSHA has been inspecting Dollar General stores since at least 2010, and has frequently found the company commiting the same safety violations - blocked, locked, or unmarked emergency exits, inaccessible electrical panels, and improper use of electrical cords that can cause fire hazards.
After 13 years the corporate leadership that leads to this consistent violation of safety regulations should be in jail.
Don’t worry. OSHA should be unconstitutional soon.
Oh my god! They’re gonna upgrade them from a wrist-slap to a stern talking-to
The company, which operates more than 19,000 discount stores worldwide, agreed to pay the $12m fine
In March, Dollar General announced that its 2023 fiscal year operating profit was $2.4bn.
So they have 19,000 stores, on average profiting $126,000, and their share of the fine is $630?
That fine should be 12mil per day to actually see some action. One time it’s just the cost of doing business
Fine them 1% of their total profit for the last 3 years every week until the problem is fixed.
Total global revenue. Accountants can play fuck fuck games with “profit” to make hundreds of millions just disappear over to the Irish subsidiary.
Follow the EUs lead. Their fines on revenue do real damage.
