iPhone Factory in China: 8th Worker Dies

The iPhone manufacturing plant should be temporarily closed because of the number of worker deaths. There should be investigations as to why the workers have died. Also, investigations are necessary in order to determine whether workers are being unfairly treated in China. Apple, the distributer of the IPhone, needs to close this plant immediately. They are just as responsible as China is for the deaths of the workers. The article states, “Apple has investigated accusations of bad employment practices by Foxconn stemming from a June 2006 complaint.” Since Apple has investigated before in the past, but haven’t found any evidence, they need to continue this now because now it’s becoming a serious problem when workers are dying. Therefore, Production of iPhone’s in China at this plant needs to be halted, for the safety and protection of the workers there.
