Tyson Foods' settlement in worker deaths called a "slap on the wrist"
Tyson Foods, the nation’s largest poultry company, has agreed to pay the state of Kentucky $60,000 to resolve a safety case that investigators say led to the deaths of two workers at its animal feed plant in Robards, Ky., according to the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Investigators initially recommended fines and penalties of $139,500 for conditions involving the fatal accident at Tyson's River Valley Animal Foods plant.
