Fuji Kang Siege: Still frequent hair jumping workers standing up to sleep

Langfang Fuji Kang Park, the dormitory building outside the wall wrapped a large net. At 6 in the morning, when the night shift workers return to the dormitory, the day workers are still resting. April 20 in the early morning, Langfang Foxconn Park in the production line is still the night shift workers "catch empty" close your eyes and rest. April 24 and April 27, Foxconn again issued "two consecutive jumps": Zhengzhou Airport Park, a 24-year-old man and a 23-year-old female worker, jumped to death. The confusion on the assembly line before, the tragedy of the staff jumped off many times in this global foundry giant staged. In the worst 2010 years, up to 10 workers jumped from the upstairs of Foxconn in Shenzhen. Monotonous assembly line life and strict management system, is accused of brewing these tragedies "culprit." Mechanical repression of the work, not the rest of the overtime, sudden and to scold, not see the future of confusion and so on, are testing the Foxconn workers, especially the "new generation of workers," the psychological ability to withstand. Last October, the reporter had to Taiyuan Foxconn "latent" for 20 days. During that time, the reporter was assigned to the workshop of the Spray code line responsible for the "receiving", that is, along the line of mobile phones and paper books to pick up the shell of the tray. According to the approximate statistics, 10 hours of work, each worker needs to receive about eight thousand or nine thousand materials, on average every 4 seconds to repeat a "hand-get material-put" action. Workers need to stay "hyper" before the assembly line. If the material can not keep up with the speed of the assembly line of the backlog, the line long roar and scold will be immediately. Foxconn workers are required to work 10 hours a day in the workshop, including 8 hours of normal working hours and 2 hours of overtime. On weekdays, weekends and holidays, Foxconn pays 1.5 times times, twice times and 3 times times more than the workers who work overtime on those days. Such "pies" stimulate workers to "volunteer overtime", although they are already tired of the assembly line life. If they do not work overtime, January can only get a basic salary of 1800 yuan, pay off the factory card in the 400 yuan rice and 100 yuan of the accommodation fee, left only a few. A passing life pledge Foxconn has also tried to ease the lives of its employees by raising wages and building unions. But in this endeavour, it has not been fully effective. In 2010, after the N-company jump, Foxconn has repeatedly raised its staff wages, the basic salary has been raised from the previous eight hundred or nine hundred yuan to 1800 yuan. 2010, Foxconn official online article said, the Company's trade union membership of more than 390,000 people, the membership rate reached 80%, the basic coverage of all staff. Earlier this year, Foxconn said it was prepared to promote trade union reform in Chinese factories and hold truly representative elections. May 1 This year, a number of universities jointly issued the "Foxconn Labor union Research Report" shows that the Foxconn labor union reform is slow, "90.2% of Foxconn employees do not know about the Foxconn union election, 94.7% of workers in the past have never participated in any form of union election vote." The research report also said that 56.1% of the people through the Union hotline "78585" complained about the problem "rarely can be resolved" or "All are not solved ", and 47.4% of the people in the complaint was" retaliation. " In addition, the reporter experience found that workers in the entry sign "Cherish life commitment", more like a "go through the motions"-the trainer does not have any explanation on the content of the commitment, the workers only need to sign. And when the psychological counselor put forward the work of confusion and confusion, the consultant will "encourage" said, "do a good job on the line." Tired and dependent on "Managing 1 million employees a day, the headaches are going to die." Last January, Foxconn's chief executive, Terry Gou, complained at an annual meeting. At the end of 2011, Foxconn announced billions of dollars in the "Million Robot" program. According to the plan, the future of Foxconn some monotonous, repetitive pipeline work will be borne by the robot. When these tireless, fearless robots began to liberate workers from tiredness and oppression, there was a fear that robots would trigger a wave of workers ' unemployment. Weary and dependent, this may be the complex sentiment of contemporary Chinese workers to Foxconn and Chinese factories like it. The workers in the assembly line in the siege of this million people, some people feel that the work and oppression, "the City" psychological counselor "comfort" said, if not adapt to leave it. Wang Yimen said, "When I first came to apply, I was alive and kicking ... Now repressed, boring, like a robot. Foxconn is like a ' siege ', the city people want to go out, people outside the city want to come in. "During the psychological consultation, the hotline rang, Langfang Foxconn someone jumped." Although the intervention of the psychologist and the host has saved a life, the topic of the jump has never been stopped at Foxconn. A thump ... The stone monkey drilled out of the stone seam, turned the somersault cloud, and rushed to the vault of heaven ... A song "Journey to the Westward" Prelude Music, is Langfang Fuji Kang Park a male worker apartment building a collective dormitory "Get Up song". Every 6:30 A.M., "Journey to the Westward" will be played from the coworker's mobile phone regularly. The stone monkey turned up the somersault, but the 30-year-old worker from rural Hebei province, Wang Yimen, did not want to get up, first he poked his head open, and then he went to sleep. After 10 minutes, he slowly dressed and washed. Watching the reporter get up, Wang Yimen said, "I just came to apply for a lively ... Now repressed, boring, like a robot. "A bed one months changed three people roommate said, I live in this bed one months changed three people," are new employees, can not stand depressed work, have resigned. "Last October, April 15 this year, the Beijing News reporter again went to Foxconn to experience working life." Langfang Fuji Kang Park covers an area of about thousand acres, the direction of things, the prosperous period of staff had reached seventy thousand or eighty thousand. The reporter and the Migrant workers from corners, armed with large bags, lined up in the Fuji Kang Park, to the apartment building. Along the way, a building of gray and white, wrapped in a long about dozens of meters, about 2-3 meters wide network. The big nets were installed after the "N-Hop" of Foxconn in 2010. Now nearly three years time, has looked shabby, many has broken, cracked the big hole, swings in the wind. "If someone jumps, the fence is vulnerable", lookA piece of broken net, a coworker laughs. The reporter was assigned to the dormitory altogether 10 people, 5 Zhang up and down. Dormitory members, the oldest 40-Year-old, the youngest is less than 18 years old, most of the 20-year-old, early education, high school. "You are welcome to come, but, when do you go?" "I just sat down in front of a bed in the dorm," said Wang Yimen, a 30-year-old Hebei youth. The question of Wang Yimen has its cause. Roommate said, I live in this bed one months changed three people, "are new employees, unbearable depressed work, all resigned." "In the dormitory, most of the work for 1-3 months of new staff, and 30-year-old Wang Yimen for six months, in the dormitory is recognized as" senior staff. Nearly 40,000 people in Langfang Foxconn, in recent months, almost every day to absorb a large number of new entrants, at the same time, many workers resigned every day. Sometimes Wang Yimen would look at a handful of new Foxconn people and laugh, "Hey, what are you doing at Foxconn?" Can endure hardship no, want to be a robot! Wang Yimen said, Foxconn is like a "siege", the city people want to go out, people outside the city want to come in. "Depressed, not earn money, work boring, bullied ... No home feeling "and so on, become the main cause of" out of the city "and want to see what kind of Foxconn, the world's top 500 enterprises to experience the cultural atmosphere, to find a daughter-in-law or girlfriend easy and so on, so many employees into the" siege. " At Foxconn work 7 years of stone Broken Hao said, "Some people specifically to pick up the girls." There are also do not want to listen to family nagging into the factory. Mechanical, oppressive assembly line life three o'clock in the morning, the reporter's legs have lost consciousness, mechanically from the machine, slipping, sliding to the measuring room. April 23 7:30 P.M., Langfang Foxconn, a plant workshop, reporters and more than 30 new employees together, in the assembly line overnight operation. Into the workshop, the face of a strong chemical odor, the ground on the green floor stained with grease, walking on top from time to slip. Operating between the roar of the machine, hundreds of people in hundreds of of the rapid operation of the machine at the front desk busy. Workers stand at the assembly-line operation stage to produce a best-selling mobile phone metal frame. The edge of the frame is cut into thin slices by the machine, very sharp, carelessly scratches the finger. Among the new employees, most of the male workers were assigned to hand-held guns in the machine, the old staff simply pointing, began to flow; The reporter is responsible for more than 20 machines produced by each of the process products to the measuring table measurement. Then take the process product back to the measuring table, and feedback to the workers at the front of the machine. Reporter of this work in a number of standing in front of the operation of the workers in the eyes of the coworker "more relaxed", you can walk back and forth, you can talk to the female workers chat. In fact, the job is not easy. Reporters need to produce more than 20 machines each product samples sent to the reporter 20 meters away from the measurement center. "You have to run, otherwise the test will not be completed, the rate of yield would be reduced." On the slick ground, a coworker told reporters. From 8 o'clock to 11 o'clock in the morning in the evening, 20 meters away from the "runway", rememberThe person ran uninterrupted for three hours. At 11 o ' Night, it is time to eat. We hurried to the canteen, after a short rest, and hurried back to the workshop. From 12 o ' clock to the wee hours, I walked back and forth along the 20-metre-long runway. During this time, several workers in the machine station, close their eyes, while the line is not long, rest for a few seconds. Three o'clock in the morning, the reporter's legs have lost consciousness, mechanically from the machine, constantly slipping, sliding to the measuring room. The reporter's body is dotted with grease stains, the brain has been blank, repetitive mechanical labor. Four o'clock in the morning, because of low yield, line length will be quality control personnel together, "yesterday's waste situation more than 30, today is more than 60, what are you doing ..." "You do it with your heart, I explain to the above", line long expression pain. Five o'clock in the morning, 8 hours of work completed.
