    Its not even borderline ridiculous. The fines are so low they just incorporate them into operating costs. Jail the entire executive suit and board if a company does this shit, no bail.

      I highlighted turnover deliberately. 4% of any company’s turnover is absolutely not something that can be rolled into BAU running costs.

      Not least of all, if a company doesn’t fix the violations, they’ll come for it again with a fresh 4% fine.
