Last week, Wistron company in Bangalore, India’s iPhone foundries appeared riots, it was reported that there are 2000 over wage deductions and employee dissatisfaction thwarted by the plant, resulting in plant downtime.
As for the cause of the accident, reports from employees and media pointed out that it was because local employees believed that Wistron had deducted their wages, and the wages in hand were 50% less than the original promise. This caused serious dissatisfaction among the workers.
However, Wistron strongly denies the deduction of wages, saying that they have paid the labor agency on time in accordance with the contract every month to pay the workers’ wages. At the same time, Wistron emphasized that this is not a strike, but a crime.
In addition, Wistron stated that the local public security has been poor for a long time, making the new factory a target of gangsters. Outsiders went to the company to make trouble, not employees.
So what’s the matter? Today, some media reported the findings of the local government in India. The Karnataka factory, boiler, industrial safety, and health department has announced a preliminary investigation. Wistron’s factories in the state have widespread exploitation, such as low wages and insufficient working hours. Fixed, poor working conditions, etc.
