Foxconn Increases Entertainment Time To Prevent Further Suicides

According to the Wall Street Journal, recently Foxconn developed a new strategy that must solve the problem with suicides. It reveals that every employee will have less overtime work and more time for entertainment.

It is also said in the report that this Friday the company held a special meeting for employees and its theme was "treasure your life, love your family and care for each other". One employee told that current changes can help to boost morale and make employees less stressed and that previously Foxconn did not care about the emotional needs of its workforce.

The company chairman's assistant Louis Woo said that such a big organization as Foxconn can really change lives.

"Unlike the previous generation of workers that regarded work and basic necessities as top priorities in life, post 80s workers don't just work for money. The new generation of workers is changing China and Hon Hai is changing to meet this new reality."

Foxconn is an Apple's partner and an assembler of iPhones and iPads. It has been lately known for a number of suicides committed by its employees.
