I totally agree to Tanvir, big companies like apple are not providing proper working conditions to its employees; its biggest example is the Fuxconn factory where all these latest apple gadgets are produced. The outputs of the factory are outstanding but the inputs are horrible.
Workers are forced to work for continuous long hours without any break; they are bound to live in the accommodations provided by the factory which are occupied by the indecent smells, harmful insects etc. Such conditions clearly lower the morale of the workers and demotivates them but due to no other source of bread and butter they continue working in this environment.
These big firms should realize that although such conditions lower their production costs and allows them to earn huge short-term profits but it is their long-term loss. As I am very fond of apple products but after reading the article regarding Fuxconn Apple’s image totally shattered in front of me and if apple keeps continuing this with its workers I would stop buying its product keeping the social responsibility in mind.
