Commercial Printing Industry : Year in Review

The owner of Digital Pre-Press International (DPI) and his plant manager were charged with involuntary manslaughter and labor code violations stemming from the 2008 death of Margarita Mojica, a pregnant woman who was crushed to death by a box creasing and cutting machine. A post-accident inspection yielded 14 citations totaling $81,000 in fines for not properly training workers. Mojica’s family and DPI previously settled out-of-court in a wrongful death lawsuit.
