Apple's inability to monitor standards lets Pegatron pay low wages, NGO says

Low costs helped Pegatron win business from Apple, who moved some orders from Foxconn after an increase in labor costs aimed at addressing a spate of worker suicides in 2010, China Labor Watch (CLW) said in a report released on Thursday. Its report came on the same day Apple published its 2015 Supplier Responsibility Progress Report, which showed a decline in compliance related to working hours. "Apple constantly claims that it is monitoring suppliers' compliance with Apple labor standards," New York-based CLW said.
