A 5x12 shift would require 1/5 of the time to be classified as overtime. Indian labour laws seem to state that overtime must be paid at 2x regular wages.
Almost seems like it would make sense to hire more people and have them work 4x12?
- sct202 4y agoIt depends on the benefits, taxes, training they pay for the incremental employees if it's worth it to plan for overtime or hire more people. Foxconn is a massive operation making a tiny profit margin thru contract manufacturing so if they're doing it this way, it probably makes sense for them.
