The short answer is that it isn’t free, and we’re generally not requiring companies to do it. Those things put together mean that the choice is between more profit, or choosing to be less profitable than their competition.
Even if you are a company that wants to do good and take home less money, you have a higher chance of getting outcompeted and going out of business.
