China Labor Watch has just produced a report which alleges that Apple, and manufacturing partner Foxconn, have been violating Chinese labor law during the production of the latest iPhone. At the largest iPhone factory in the world, CLW uncovered that around 50 percent of the labor force is temporary staff- otherwise known as dispatch workers. Chinese labor law does not allow for more than 10 percent of workers to be temporary. Apple has stated that the firm is working with Foxconn to resolve this issue.
