Coca-Cola has come under fire after a private investigation accused it of "serious infringement" of the rights of its dispatched workers in China.

"These employees are involved in the most dangerous, intense and tiresome labor, work the longest hours, but receive the lowest wage and face arrears with and even cutbacks on their pay," said a 28-page report written by seven university students after a month of participatory research and released in Beijing on Sunday.

They collected the information between July and August while working in Coca-Cola's bottlers in Guangzhou, Dongguan and Huizhou in Guangdong province, as well as the company's suppliers in Shanghai and Hangzhou in Zhejiang province.
