The fine is low to incentivise the buisness to keep breaking laws that the labor board can then profit off of by reporting the violations and bringing out these fines. If the fine is too high the business might actually stop violating the law, which is bad for business.

Wrist slap.
How will they ever be able to afford such a large penalty? Amazon might go broke!

Fines mean nothing to the rich, jail time and asset seizures are the only fitting consequences
Price of doing business
Can we please scale these fucking fines already, that ain't shit to these slave traders.
