Terry Gou, founder of the giant Foxconn announced last Friday that will replace a yet undetermined number of employees for a million machines in the next 3 years. The strong media pressure and the problems occurred before Foxconn forced to issue a new type of anti-suicide contract for their workers.
If the Taiwanese company has 10,000 robots, which aim is not little. Begin introducing 300,000 machines this year and up to 1 million within 3. These new machines would be entrusted with tasks "simple and mechanical" such as spray spray, managed and assembly. One good thing to remember is that the mechanization of the work would remove the risk of contamination from exposure to toxic materials by the workers themselves.
Currently Foxconn, who is on most products for Apple, Sony and Nokia, employs 1.2 million people, nearly a million in China alone. The measure seeks to cut costs announced wage and workers acquire new way competent, prepared, and better paid.
It seems that once and for all Foxconn wants to clean up their image, but depending on who you see, because a work is very valuable at this time.
