The Department of Industrial Relations retained Imprenta Communications Group to help generate awareness of the infringement of rights in the California workplace. Katreena was crucial in creating and implementing the phrase “wage theft”, a crime that affects a significant number of American workers. Katreena led a team that executed a comprehensive communications and outreach campaign that included advertising, earned media, partnerships and stakeholder engagement. Once again, Katreena’s visual intellect created components that spoke to varying socioeconomic groups. Katreena personally put in time designing each component of this complex campaign, as she does with every campaign she leads.
