Chinese bus builder's labor troubles may be a problem for Gov. Brown (USA)

Gov. Jerry Brown's vision to build electric buses in California may be giving him a black eye. In April, Brown visited the factory of Chinese vehicle manufacturer Build Your Dreams, or BYD, and announced that the company would make similar vehicles in the high-desert city of Lancaster. "It's very significant," Brown said...But BYD has run into trouble with Brown's own labor regulators, now that the Lancaster assembly plant is gearing up for production..Two BYD affiliates — a headquarters in downtown Los Angeles and the Lancaster facility of BYD Coach & Bus — are accused of paying some of their Chinese national employees less than California's minimum wage of $8 an hour...In a statement, BYD said it never intended to violate California's "unique and technical wage and hour laws" and has hired a labor attorney to resolve its problems with the state.
