He is said to of caused several interns to be severely harmed some even killed while testing the challenge and instead of adjusting it to be safer says: "Well, that seems safe enough", not to mention as the series goes on it become more dangerous. In the version where Gwen won after she refused to accept the "offer" of giving up her winnings in a chance to win even more he doesn't accept her answer and says it's happening anyways.

He's withheld Chef's paycheck, nearly starves some interns to death has a challenge to feed them then has the contestants eat the sundaes he claims were for the starving interns. He polluted the island with toxic waste to the point the animals had mutated into deadly creatures while having the contestants compete there not caring of they might suffer or die. At the end of the season after he tries to blow up the boat they are leaving on (it was moved to under him) he is arrested for making the island a wasteland. He at this point had already arguably crossed the Moral Even Horrizon. He's not treated as a nice or reasonable person he's portayed as corrupt and sadistic host and admittesd once a challenge was considered too dangerous by his producers and went with it anyway.

Considering we see the mental world struggle between Mal and Mike they might very well in universe edit out some of what Chris does since in universe we shouldn't of been able to see that. We don't get much info on the producers but it's possible he has a contract that makes him guaranteed so many seasons if not permanent. That or a possible fear of rating drop.
