63 days Foxconn zombie internship

After ending Foxconn's 63-day internship, Chen, who returned to Xi'an from Yantai, returned to school for the third year of school. He is a 2011-year undergraduates majoring in Computer Science at North Information Engineering Institute of Xi'an Technological University. Chen already knows that the media reported on their school to force more than a thousand students at Foxconn internships, otherwise schools will not issue diplomas.

Organizing students to practice Foxconn collectively is obviously seen as "positive energy" at the school. In response, the leadership of the hospital also had to go to Foxconn (Yantai) Industrial Park inspection, and later both sides signed the "co-build personnel training base agreement." In the internship students back to school, even at the entrance to the hospital also wrote a welcoming welcome internship students return reputation banner.

However, when interviewed by Beijing Youth Daily, most of the students in the college said that they were "excluded" from Foxconn internships because they thought it was "not of much significance" that they did not consider the internship relevant to their major. However, the school provides 6 internship value of 6 credits, so we had to be "implicitly mandatory" to practice. Indeed, the reporter saw in the column of "cooperation between schools and enterprises" of the "Guidance of School-Enterprise Cooperation" of the Guomindang Institute of Information Science and Engineering in North China that the practice of student internship (school-enterprise cooperation) promulgated in the court states that "student internship practice Elective courses "and provides that social practice arranged by 10-14 weeks, 6 credits. "Measures" did not mention, if students can not get these 6 credits how to do.

The media reported that the hospital was accused of compulsory student internship at Foxconn, the students are very cautious interviewed, most do not want to say their real name. The latest news is that the hospital said it has suspended the activity and relevant departments have also conducted investigations. Interestingly, the banners hung in front of the school did not arrive the next day.

Later, Zhang Junan, vice president of Xi'an University of Technology and dean of the Northern Information Engineering Institute, said in an interview that going to Foxconn to work as a required course for the college's engineering training is similar to military training and not an internship. The college organized sophomore and junior year this year, a total of more than 5,000 students went to Foxconn, the school did not receive a penny agency fee, but Foxconn gave the school an average of more than 100,000 each year scholarships and scholarships, etc. "There are generally open sports sponsorship ".

character:

Boys Chen (Department of Computer Science, North Information Engineering Institute, 2011)

Before the sophomore year, it is time for a holiday. - All afternoon afternoon open - a meeting, the Department's assistant told the meeting at the meeting to organize everyone to Foxconn to do this. The effect is that there is such a thing, you can exercise - under. The teacher said the main thing to bring internship items, such as photos, ID card or something, do not have to bring bedding, but also talked about the route to tickets and other matters how to do.

I understand that internships are like - door compulsory, 6 credits, yes, no.

August 6: Foxconn arrived

August 5 I from his hometown of Yan'an to Xi'an, 337 yuan to buy their own - Zhang Yantai train tickets. Sitting nearly 24 hours of the train, August 6, I went to Yantai train station.

Many students arrived in Yantai about this day. Foxconn really good, specially sent to the train station to pick us up. Students who arrive in advance will also have Foxconn into the train station waiting.

At Foxconn, our formalities have not been properly handled and we have eaten a few free meals. Foxconn hardware conditions better than the school. 10 into the dormitory 8 to stay, 8 into the dormitory 6 to stay. I am in 6 into - between the dormitory. Dormitory can also take a hot shower. Futon is provided by Foxconn, are disinfected.

1-7 days: training to get two credits

About Foxconn after about a week, is to handle personal procedures, to participate in various training. Training content such as fire safety knowledge, into the workshop of precautions. Into the workshop can not bring mobile phones, MP3, MP4 and other electronic products, can not bring food. The electronics in the workshop is not yet available yet. Inside the workshop can not eat. We can all understand these.

The treatment is also very clearly stated during the training. My basic salary is 1800 yuan a month, 150 yuan a month deducting accommodation, there are 1650 yuan. Overtime is usually 1.5 times the wage, work overtime is double the weekend, overtime is three times the statutory holiday pay. Busy period, if 7 days to work, but also get an additional 100 yuan reward.

In addition, Foxconn will deduct $ 400 from the monthly wage, hitting the meal card for eating in the workshop. If you do not finish it, your balance will be returned to your salary.

After the training Foxconn organized - exams, like all can test down. At this time I learned that the exam counts 2 credits, full participation in the internship work, count 4 credits. The two add up to 6 credits.

8-14 days: from 50 to 1000 a day

I was assigned to the assembly shop. This week I am on duty, 7:20 am to 7:20 pm. Into the workshop must be changed for slippers, wear electrostatic tooling, off the shop to go through a similar security gate when the train station.

Workshop is a pipeline job. My job is to finalize the final process of a game console hard drive assembly. After a process came to me, I want to take out the hard drive, install a protective box, and then back into the product, and then fixed, to the next process.

After arrival at 7:20, there is about 10 minutes of preparation time. I want to be ready to fix the hard drive screw, check - under the device there is no problem. After about 20 minutes, the product will reach me.

The product can pass about three minutes a minute, two words if it is slow. I have to finish the assembly in ten seconds. Not reach this speed, the product will be backlogged by me.

I did 50 in the first 4 hours. I made 120 in 8 hours the next day. I remember after a day shift, my workload added to more than 1,000 a day. The workload is constantly increasing. Add to 1000, if every day for three consecutive days to do more than 1000, will add 60. Of course, the workload added to a certain extent will not increase, I add up to - 1600 products a day.

15-28 days: sleep day after night shift

The third week I started night shift, the time is from 7:20 pm to 7:20 the next day. At this time, my daily workload is already more than 1,000.

I feel particularly tired after night shift, what do not want to do, whole body particularly lacking. Eat breakfast after get off work, back to the dormitory is to sleep. Sleeping less efficient during the day, sleep wake up however. Do not eat lunch, - Sleep until 5 o'clock in the afternoon, get up and eat a supper, went to work. On the class a little better, after work meal can also be a little fun - next.

All staff are standing in the workshop. Working on the assembly line is standing. Rest for 10 minutes every two hours, then sit - will be. There is one hour of meal time in the middle of each shift.

I do - a product at least ten seconds, after which you can not rest within two hours. Pipeline can not stop Well. At this time if you want to drink water to the bathroom, you can say hello to the line length, he can top you - next. Of course you have to come back soon

There will be two lines per line. Line length is the old staff in the workshop, the line of life can be done very fine.

29-35 days: I feel like a "zombie"

Down into the night shift, I have to do more than 1,000 products a day. When I finish the night shift for three weeks, I can do 1,350 a day, at least 140 products in an hour.

Foxconn is a time-based wage system. On the first week of the shift, I work eight hours a day. After the start of night shift, I work every day for 8 + 2 hours. 8 hours normal class, 2 hours overtime.

At that time I felt like I was working and felt like a zombie. When the product is small, it can talk to the side, and when there is not enough time to talk to the other side, do not talk to you in time. Busy classmates to talk to me, I do not want to ignore him.

There are air-conditioning in the workshop, when busy will be anxious sweating. Sometimes up to a dozen of products I piled here, you want to finish quickly, can not be pressured here, psychological pressure, it will be anxious sweating.

This time every second I have to do faster, otherwise the assembly line will not smooth, will think of myself faster and faster, and then to rest - under.

36-42 days: tired even salary rather not

The sixth week, I was back from the night shift back to day shift. This is the most difficult to top - weeks. There are still students said that overtime is good, you can make more money. This time, I said, basic salary should not be willing to give credits on the line.

After pouring into day shift, the working hours per day are 8 + 1 for 9 hours, and rest on Sunday. This is the result of consultation with Foxconn. After working overtime into the first week, working hours are 8 +2 a total of 10 hours, Saturday to work overtime.

This is when everyone feels particularly tired. Everyone did that eight hours later, overtime hours are not done, go. One or two into the production line will not be able to open the line, then go into the particularly large. According to the Foxconn regulations, overtime hours do not want to go can go, not absenteeism.

The shop felt like a kite, bad management. Go to work the next day - early in the morning, the leader of a long line - a leader convened to convene a meeting that you do not want to work overtime, but completely overtime can not really complete the workload. So put 8 +1, Saturday and Sunday can not work overtime, the two sides each step - step.

Foxconn faded - step,

We can not be too much. Everyone accepted.

43-49 days: used to not rest on Saturday and Sunday

Rewind a week after the day shift, Foxconn to market a new game upgrade products, especially nervous. That line requires daily work time must be 8 +3 a total of 11 hours, Saturday and Sunday must work overtime.

At that time, someone in that pipeline was especially reluctant to work overtime and finished in 8 hours. A person does not do, the entire assembly line will stop.

Workshop to solicit our opinions, ask if anyone is willing to work overtime to the top, you can make more money. The product on our pipeline is not much different from that new product, and we do a similar job there.

I know that there are more than a dozen people working here. There are more than 30 people there. The process is broken down and the output is from the beginning. So I agree. In this way, the pipeline here to do 8 hours, then add 3 hours class over there. Since then, I have not had a rest on Saturday and Sunday. I could do a few dozen in the first hour, then at least 150 in an hour. If you can not finish the line length will not say that you special, plus class you leave just fine. At that time used to, do not feel particularly tired.

50-63 days: Mid-Autumn Festival between the storm

Last week also happened - Things: Mid-day overtime is triple the wage, we all want to go. However, the overtime workshop does not need so many people, you need this type of work, you can go.

Mid-day overtime did not let me go. The next day I was a little angry, did not go to work, sleep in the dorm. I know this is absenteeism. Absenteeism is - days without wages. Impact on employees, no impact on students.

That day, my only line I did not go, the other - the line did not go to 4 people, we did not say hello with the line leader. Did not go to more people, the line length to stop - a pipeline, fill other lines.

Let's go to the new assembly line to work overtime. A special manager once told us that the Mid-Autumn Festival and the National Day all let us work overtime, which meant that we could make more money but they did not do so. Say I do not go to work should say hello, integrity is very important, but you do not talk about credit Why should I talk about?

Because after the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, so many people did not go to get off work at a meeting when the long line said, "Eleventh" will let you all work overtime, that is, other people do not need the workshop, but also let you work overtime. Line length surely also understand our feelings. Want to go to not see, to see other students take three times the salary, we are certainly not happy. I went to work after a day's absence from absenteeism, and the leader did not say anything.

National Day three days, we work overtime on the assembly line of our workshop. In fact, three days, just came to Guizhou a group of secondary school students internship, we have all come down from the assembly line. We have no job to do, the shop arranges us to do very relaxed work. I just wipe the floor, sweep the floor, wash things, eliminate disinfection or something. This also takes three times the salary.

We relaxed a bit, but Foxconn does not lose any more. As soon as the National Day is over, the new students take three times the salary and many people will not come. Work is relatively easy at this time, the new incoming output is still relatively low, work is relatively easy.

October 9: Leave Foxconn

On October 9, I finished the separation procedure and left Foxconn on the morning of the 10th. Foxconn or bus us to the train station. Waiting for three hours at the train station, getting into the train at 3 pm and at 3 am on the 11th, I returned to Xi'an.

University graduate will not do first-line workers

Internship did not say "must" but no other way

North Youth Daily reporter: more than two months internship, how do you feel?

Chen: I feel particularly tired at the beginning, then I do not feel particularly tired. Foxconn front-line work can be done, and other work should be done. No concept of the factory before, did not do a bit to stand two hours of work. August to November, I think it is the busiest time for Foxconn. Not busy do not need us to go.

Reporter: Every student must go to Foxconn internship it?

Chen: The teacher did not clearly say that we must go, but did not say there is a second way.

Reporter: If you do not go to 6 credits can not get it, the school said there are other ways to make up?

Xiao Chen: 30 classmates in our class, I know only - a male student did not go because of back injury. That classmate can make up by other means, but this path is not at the conference.

Reporter: If you can not get these 6 credits will have any consequences?

Chen: listen to the seniors said they can not get a diploma 6 credits, but the teachers did not say so. If you did not go this year, go ahead next year. Three weeks after my internship, something went wrong in my house. I told the teacher on leave, the teacher said, come back home after you finish the rest of the time, credits are not affected. If you do not come back, credits will be affected. Later I did not go home.

Reporter: There are documents in this area?

Chen: Never seen before. Just talk about the rough content. University graduate will not do first-line workers

Reporter: Internship earned how much money?

Chen: 2000 yuan in August. 3400 yuan in September, of which more than 2,000 yuan overtime pay. October 11 Foxconn has hit my salary in September. Wages in October nearly 1,000 yuan, because the National Day I added a three-day class. This Foxconn doing well.

Reporter: Value?

Chen: Not worth the internship. Exercise - the next can be, but the significance is not great. It is not the most important thing for students to earn money. Internship basically has nothing to do with my major, for the study of the text, the point - no relationship.

Reporter: University graduates will choose this kind of work?

Chen: No. This is a front-line worker's work, go directly to the front line, as a college student, can not accept. If you go to Foxconn, will go to test management positions. Foxconn wages are not very high, when busy, by overtime to earn about 3,000 yuan, if not busy, also earned a month - more than a thousand.

Foxconn overtime are voluntary

Reporter: Foxconn managers how about you?

Chen: At its most basic, are voluntary. Some students do not work overtime during the internship from start to finish, only work eight hours.

Reporter: When the work is tense, will the line leader urge you?

Chen: Yes. They hope that the daily workload can be completed. Every day to work will have a short meeting, the line leader will talk about the situation of the day, will also be named about the speed of work.

Reporter: It has been reported before that Foxconn workers committed suicide things, there will be so much pressure?

Chen: Pressure comes mainly from work, but I guess the case of suicide or psychological problems, because pressure can resign thing.

Reporter: how the working environment?

Chen: The treatment of each workshop is not - like. There is a classmate in the warehouse, working day is pulling goods, get off work can send a bottle of plus treasure. Sometimes doing well, but also get 40 yuan Dicos vouchers. Foxconn's workshop is all standing, who can not sit. Girls in the assembly line to do the fine work, heavy - point of the boys do.

Leading teachers also work at Foxconn

Reporter: Internship trip fee schools will be reimbursed?

Chen: go to the train unified buy the school, is the hard seat, train tickets back seems to Foxconn reported.

Reporter: school teachers meeting assembly line?

Xiao Chen: Teachers work in the school enterprises, the treatment is better.

Reporter: Teacher will come to see you?

Xiao Chen: The teacher occasionally goes to the dorm room - under, the assembly line has not been to. The usual encounter on the road, the teacher will say something to him, or go to the office to find him.

Reporter: School students sent to Foxconn internship, will have income?

Chen: Everyone has a little bottom of it.

Reporter: I heard that Foxconn employees recommended incentives?

Xiao Chen: There really is this thing. In the Foxconn plant posted notices, said the staff recommended a $ 400 award. I can see every day when I get off work. This version of text / newspaper reporter Wang Jin
