China: Working conditions at electronics factories remain concerning, with reports of continuous labor rights violations at Apple's suppliers Pegatron and Foxconn
From June to July 2023, China Labor Watch's sent investigators to Foxconn’s Chengdu factory and Pegatron's Kunshan factory to document the working conditions of Apple’s global supply chain. Their findings revealed ongoing labor rights violations, including excessive use of dispatch workers, mandatory overtime, and persistent workplace bullying, including sexual harassment, mirroring problems reported in previous years.
In January 2024, the Business and Human Rights Resource Centre invited Fxoconn and Pegatron to respond to the allegations in China Labor Watch's reports. Both companies did not respond.
