First they wereoffered20 per cent . Then,30 per cent . Then Apple wasrumoredto be chipping in to help out . Now , it ’s being cover that Foxconn is offering employees another 66 per cent carrying into action - based pay rise .
Foxconn Workers Receiving 20 Percent Salary Increase
From 900 Yuan ( $ 132 ) salary a calendar month , the 66 per cent pay wage hike ( on top of the 30 per centime ) would do wonders for employees ’ motive , and hopefully go some room to stopping the suicide foolishness which has gripped the manufacturing plant the past six months .
There ’s a small catch behind the 66 per cent pay rise , however . The workers must pass a three calendar month performance recapitulation , which if successful , could sack them 2,000 Yuan per month ( $ 292 ) . It ’s not know what hoops they must parachute through to grab that special money — but regardless of whether the functioning followup is passed , we imagine the 30 per cent remuneration acclivity still bind true .
