Oct. 2 (Bloomberg) -- How can it be that a company clever
enough to satisfy Apple Inc.’s famously stringent requirements
can’t figure out how to keep its workers from killing themselves
and hurting one another?
Last week’s riot at a Foxconn Technology Group factory in
northern China belies the myth that better pay and benefits are
enough to mollify Chinese workers. Foxconn, which is Apple’s
leading supplier, already pays above-market rates and has been
raising wages.
