Amazon has pending lawsuits about this in multiple countries. Meat packers are staring down lawsuits about this across several states. These lawsuits cover millions of employees.

If you are trying to argue that there was just a single instance of this kind of offense, you're in a world of fantasy.

And it's a tossup as to whether they're going to get more from the lawsuits or from government assistance--both are going to be woefully inadequate.
