There have been similar threads in the past about other meat processing facilities. I think generally, the management disapproves of damaging the product in this way. They would frown on workers who stomp chickens into the shit for fun because then you can't sell the chicken. It's all about money to the management. Workers in a chicken plant are not typically the cream of the crop. They shouldn't be abusive to chickens, but the problem is probably not widespread enough to be obvious to management. If there were piles of stomped chickens lying around, management would put a stop to it in a hurry.
Also, this is propaganda, not an unbiased report. I take the footage with a huge grain of salt. I don't trust PETA, to be honest. I think it's fair to assume they selected the most damning footage, and the stomping may even have been staged or encouraged by the videotaper. The videotaper is by definition a con artist for entering the plant under false pretenses. He/she probably also was acting as if stomping on chickens was funny or something so the others would continue to do it. Who knows? I had a friend who was a private investigator for a while. He went undercover a few times and befriended people and conned them into doing stuff that they might not have done in front of someone otherwise. Then he would "bust" them. People can be encouraged to do things.
