Makmur Fined $180K for Workplace Safety Breach
Description
Makmur Enterprises, a Richmond food manufacturer, was fined $180,000 after a workers finger was sliced on a dough mixer. The company pleaded guilty to safety rule violations, as they failed to properly guard the machines moving parts. This incident is part of a recurring pattern, with Makmur facing five prior safety busts since 2014 for similar machinery traps. The court emphasized the need for Makmur to address these safety gaps, as their total fines now exceed $455,000.
