Police and the labor ministry on Tuesday raided SPC Samlip Co., a confectionery unit under SPC Group, and its factory in Siheung in connection with a fatal accident that killed a factory worker last month. The Siheung Police Station and the Seongnam branch of the labor ministry conducted the search operation at the headquarters of SPC Samlip in Seoul’s Seocho district and the bread factory in Siheung, some 32 kilometers southwest of Seoul. Tuesday’s raid comes 29 days after the worker, known only as a woman in her 50s, was killed after her upper body got caught in a conveyor belt during lubrication work. The two agencies sent 80 investigators and labor inspectors to search 12 offices inside the buildings to secure materials related to the safety of the factory in question. The police and the labor ministry conducted a joint inspection on-site last month, and have so far booked seven factory officials on charges of occupational negligence resulting in death.
