Foxconn Violates Labor Disputes In The Labor Law

The problem of manufacturing in China is not only a labor and capital issue, but a social problem of how to ensure the realization of workers' rights and how to achieve decent and dignified life for workers.

The Foxconn Research Report, completed by 20 teachers and students from three universities across the Taiwan Strait, has recently revealed to the public.

Foxconn

A series of illegal activities --

In violation of the law of labour,

Compulsory overtime, overtime work, violation of the labor law, deduction of overtime pay, violation of the internship practice Ordinance, abuse of student workers, violation of the labor law and the occupational disease prevention act, ignoring occupational safety hazards; violating the "industrial injury insurance Ordinance", "private" industrial injury.

This thought that with Foxconn's massive increase in employee wages and a series of measures, it will make people a little calmed down. But after all, it is still in the thick of gold and jade. This research report from many angles and deep analysis lets us see the true face of Foxconn and bring us a lot of heavy thinking.

As we can see, Foxconn, as an International Foundry giant, has not actually made adjustments to its inhuman management problems, but has strengthened its staff control to an unprecedented level.

In fact, we have been making great efforts to whitewash the economic benefits brought by the world factory. When Chinese society is talking about manufacturing in China, the government and the media are showing off their capital by GDP growth. Entrepreneurs are following the public opinion trend to talk about the hot topics from internationalization to charity to low carbon, and seldom talk about employee satisfaction and employee happiness in their enterprises.

Just like this, the factory of tycoon, represented by Foxconn, has become "24 hours of life" itself. If 8 hours of factory work still has to endure the "living livelihood", then the Chinese made the "Taylor system" into an inevitable survival castle, which is the real, cruel and helpless Chinese made system paradox behind Foxconn. As the research report has said, the enterprise security as a violent organization can be arbitrary scolding, and the workers will use the factory telephone alarm to be directly pferred to the company's security department. If the factory area breaks the law, the police will not be able to enter the factory area.

It can be imagined, if not the connivance of the government departments, how can the management mode of Foxconn continue?

It can be seen that many things happen in enterprises.

Labor dispute

On the surface, it is the issue of salary distribution. Actually, it is far more than simply giving wages to workers.

It should be said that the workers' right to know and the right to speak are ignored or even ignored. The lack of human management and the failure to achieve personal value are the crux of the problem.

It can be seen that the vast numbers of labourers, especially the new generation of migrant workers, have a clearer and higher demand for their own values than their parents. This is the embodiment of social progress.

For them, decent work not only means a reasonable salary and welfare protection, but also is able to communicate with enterprises equally, that is, they have the right to know the business status of the enterprise, have the right to participate in the long-term development of the enterprise, and have the right to speak for their own interests.

However, from the actual situation, not only the enterprises are obviously in a strong position, but also the trade unions acting as the traditional workers' rights and interests have become the vassals of enterprises directly in our country.

In a word, the problem of manufacturing in China is not only a labor and capital issue, but also a social problem of how to ensure the realization of the rights of workers and how to realize the decent and dignified life of workers.
