중국 폭스콘 공장 차질로 아이폰 생산 30% 부진

iPhone production could slump by at least 30 percent at Foxconn's factory in China's city of Zhengzhou after worker unrest disrupted operations, a person with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Friday. The estimate was an upward revision of an October internal forecast for production impact of up to 30 percent at the world's largest iPhone factory, said the source, who sought anonymity as the information was private.

Following this week's bout of worker unrest at the plant, the source added, it was “impossible” for the company to resume full production by the end of the month – a deadline it had set internally before Wednesday's wave of protests.

Foxconn declined to comment.

Earlier on Friday, Reuters reported that more than 20,000 employees, most of them were new hires not yet working on the production line, have left Apple supplier Foxconn's Zhengzhou plant in China, citing a Foxconn source familiar with the matter. The person said the departures would complicate the company's previous target of resuming full production by the end of November, following worker unrest that rocked production at the world's largest iPhone factory.

Foxconn has apologised for committing a pay-related “technical error” when hiring new recruits, which workers say was a factor that led to protests involving clashes with security personnel.

수요일에 시작된 정저우 공장의 노동 불안은 중국에서 공개적으로 반대하는 보기 드문 장면으로 노동자들은 연체된 임금과 심각한 COVID-19 제한에 대한 불만을 불러일으켰다고 말했습니다.

Meanwhile, a second Foxconn source familiar with the matter said some new hires had left the campus but did not elaborate on how many. The person said the departures had no impact on current production, as the new staff still needed to take training courses before working online.

폭스콘은 지난 19월 코로나XNUMX 확산을 억제하기 위한 조치를 시행해야 했던 이후 이달 초 보너스와 더 높은 급여를 약속하며 채용 드라이브를 시작했다. 연석으로 인해 회사는 많은 직원을 격리해야 했고 공장의 상태로 인해 여러 직원이 도망쳤습니다.
