Today, it is made public that China Labor Watch has issued a report against one of Apple's suppliers, to which, those of Cupertino have responded immediately by auditing that supplier, Jabil.
According to the report issued by China Labor Watch, Jabil is forcing its workers to work days of more than 11 hours standing every day adding bad conditions in hiring as well as inadequate training.
