Foxconn, one of Apple’s most important suppliers, is taking new measures after workers leave its largest iPhone manufacturing factory. Accordingly, the company made a significant improvement in the salary of personnel who agreed to work in a closed loop during the COVID pandemic.
Foxconn does not want disruptions in iPhone production
The COVID epidemic affecting the Zhengzhou Foxconn facility in Henan province of China has pushed Foxconn to take various measures. Wanting to minimize the spread of the virus, the company had to switch to closed-loop production.
After the developments, some workers experienced unease, while others decided to quit their job. On top of that, Foxconn switched to a new salary policy to encourage employees to work. The salary of the personnel who agreed to stay and work in the company was quadrupled.

Apple’s largest iPhone supplier, Foxconn, may experience a production problem due to its entry into the closed-loop system! Here are the details…
According to the information received, workers who previously received 100 yuan (255 TL) per day started to receive 400 yuan (1,020 TL) per day after the developments. With these bonuses, Foxconn aims to persuade its employees to stay at the factory instead of going home.
It is stated that the company, which took these measures after the COVID pandemic in the city gained strength, did not provide adequate conditions for the workers. While it is reported that the workers had to stay in bad conditions, it is stated that Foxconn was helpless after the decision taken by the state.
Despite all these measures, it is stated that iPhone production at the Foxconn factory will decrease by 30 percent. Plans have begun to be made in order to eliminate the disruptions in production due to epidemic measures later in the year.
