It is actually true, so my book in front of me says.
Here is a couple more:

$35,000. What a supervisor had to pay for telling a worker that she was okay and didn't need to see a nurse. As it turns out, the worker was having a massive heart attack. The worker nearly dies and is now totally disabled.

$30,000. What a supervisor paid, for refusing to let a worker spraying caustic cleaner in a stainless steel tank in a meatpacking plant, to get into a proper rain suit. Worker had split his pants and asked for a new pair. Supervisor refused, telling worker that he'd already gone through more PPE than any other worker.
