When an exact number in a news story is known, it is used. In this case, 28 workers were arrested.

On the other hand, when a company reports it's number of workers to the press, they always tend to overstate. In this case, we learned that the facility employs over 100 people. Now, the catch here is that is probably no more than 110.

The troubling issue here is that approximately 30 percent of their workforce were arrested. 30 percent.

What we need here is an investigation of this company's hiring practices.

Something is afoot.

You are so right! Thanks for pointing this out. 30% is indeed mind boggling.
