Following allegations of inappropriate behavior by managers at the Waterloo, IA hog plant, Tyson Foods commissioned an investigation headed by former Attorney General, Eric Holder. Dean Banks, President and CEO of Tyson Foods announced the termination of seven plant management stating "the behaviors exhibited by these individuals do not represent the Tyson values which is why we took immediate and appropriate action to get to the truth. Now that the investigation is concluded we are taking action based on the findings".

Following a second visit to the facility, Banks announced that Tyson is reaffirming its commitment both to plant workers and to the community. The Company will intensify communication with team members and establish a working group with the local community to ensure collaboration on issues affecting the plant and City.
