in capitalism, criminal liability is still a cost.



Not in any meaningful sense. Criminal liability goes to officers of the company and they call the shots.

You’re likely thinking of civil infractions.


It doesn’t help when the affected workers are easy and cheap to replace.


In non-capitalism as well. Except then the perpetrators are less likely to go to jail, as they're probably the ones in power.
