many former foxconn employees or "insiders" started to speak out in blogs, forums, etc. (sohu says that "many foxconn employees set up blogs at sohu"):
foxconn is really vicious, 80% are female workers aged 17-18, some are 15 or 16 years-old, they STAND to work (not allowed to sit), you can image it, standing for 14-15 hours, 20 minutes for lunch. is there any humanity in such a factory? overtime voluntarily? shit! how much base pay they get - 450-580 RMB per month, they have to work overtime to earn as much as 1000 RMB. some work for months without break. there is no media report. local government doesn't care about it, even they know the truth, they won't mind it, how much tax they collect from foxconn, hundreds of millions. the government is certainly very happy with such companies ......
isnt it a fact that some work 11-12 hours a day?
i am a foxconn employee, i was greatly delighted when the hidden sinisters of foxconn was exposed. there are so many hidden sinisters in foxconn and let me share a few of them i witnessed with you:
1) Nov 2003. the CCPBG BU is in its slack season and from that month foxconn only pay the 340 RMB base salary, no pay for OT. because of this, a female worker (from Hunan province) went back to her dorm at 23:00 after work and jumped from 3rd floor to kill herself
sorry, will do the translation later
