Working conditions have improved at plants owned by Foxconn, a Taiwan-based electronics giant and Apple Inc's biggest supplier, according to a report released on Tuesday.
The Fair Labor Association, a United States-based nonprofit organization, said that Foxconn has completed the actions it agreed to take to improve working conditions at its two plants in Shenzhen and one plant in Chengdu, which make Apple's popular iPhone and iPad products.
Foxconn has cut working hours to fewer than 60 hours per week, including overtime, and implemented health and safety measures.
