Recently we heard tearjerker from China, where the company Foxconn, which produces the lion’s share of technology Apple, repeatedly suspected of violating labor laws. And the media reported that the company again took up his and this time cynically exploiting student teachers, forcing them to work overtime.
According to reports, the management of the Institute of Xi’an City forced their students to work at Foxconn plant in Yantai as interns. In case of refusal to participate in the program work experience students risked not getting a diploma of graduation.
It is noteworthy that Foxconn representatives did not deny it and officially recognized that a violation of labor law occurred. As a result of the internal investigation it was found that students were forced to work in assembly plants for 11 hours a day, to the same content production practices are not consistent with the specialty to which they are trained.
The Chinese company has promised to take swift action to prevent such incidents in the future. It looks like Apple audits have a positive impact on the situation, because the information about suicides and other tragic cases Foxconn factories have been reported for quite some time.
