Thousands of factory workers at Foxconn went on strike Friday to protest their working conditions on the iPhone 5’s production lines.

The reason reflected to public about why they went on strike is that employees especially quality inspectors thought that the i-phone quality standard is really hard to meet. Workers felt that standard is kind of “an impossible job”, and job increase the pressure among workers. More importantly, workers’ strike is related to unfair working hours and harsh working environment.

Officially, Foxconn refused to admit that there is strike. A year earlier, Foxconn worker suicided for unfair treatment, which bring us thinking about business ethic. Companies pursue high production and interest of workers get in the way. People thought that there is always a conflict between interest of employees and employers, but it is important to find a balance between them, and ethic is the most important thing while launching a business. Foxconn supplied a lot of electronic devise company and take advantage of cheap price, and company choose Foxconn because of price, which gives Foxconn a reason to treat its employees unfairly. There are always chains of reasons, but every companies in that line should take responsibilities.
