What are you counting, and how are you counting it?
Why do you think the rate of death at Foxconn is any different to any other large manufacturing company?
- kick 7y agoTake a look at them, these are just the ones that happened inside of the factories. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn_suicides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn_suicides
- DanBC 7y agoAgain, why do you think a death by suicide inside the factory is unusual? Suicide is a leading cause of death in every single country in the world (albeit it doesn't always appear to be so because of the way it's counted) and so when you have a very large employer you're going to see many deaths in their workforce. Every death by suicide is a tragedy for that person and their loved ones, but I'm not seeing anything that says Foxconn have unusually large rates of deaths.
