A new report from the Fair Labor Association (FLA) on two facilities run by of one of Apples manufacturing partners has found numerous violations, including excessive overtime, underpayment of sick wages, and inadequate health and safety measures. Those issues have been flagged at other factories in Apples supply chain over the years, including Foxconn, which was not the focus of this report. The two factories in question are operated by Quanta, and were located in Shanghai and Changshu, both in Eastern China. The facilities were inspected by third-party labor monitoring organization Openview Service on behalf of the FLA last August, all as part of a larger and continual inspection on Apples supply chain.
