Apple and Foxconn found violating Chinese law by employing large temporary staff: Report

Firstpost  

Apple has acknowledged that it found the percentage of temporary staff to be higher than their standard The new Apple iPhones are just a day away from their announcement. According to a report in Bloomberg, Apple and its iPhone manufacturing partner, Foxconn, may have broken a Chinese labour law by employing too many temporary workers. Chinese labour law says that there can’t be more than 10 percent temporary staff at any time. “Apple has the responsibility and capacity to make fundamental improvements to the working conditions along its supply chain, however, Apple is now transferring costs from the trade war through their suppliers to workers and profiting from the exploitation of Chinese workers,” noted CLW in its report. Apple has acknowledged that it found the percentage of temporary staff to be higher than their standard and that it is working closely with Foxconn to fix the issue.
