"The company, France Télécom — which used to be state-owned and is now known as Orange, one of France’s largest corporations — was fined $83,000, the maximum penalty."
"Yet since that term is under two years and as Lombard does not present a danger to society, he will not spend time behind bars under French court rules." [0]
Considering 2 people died, and this slap on the wrist is 6 month of wages, divide by two and that's 3 month pay for every dead worker.
Will the executive have to pay out of their pocket? If so, each executive can have up to 4 dead workers per year before having to worry -- not even taking bonuses in account!
Nice.
