Foxconn is nominated for the 2011 Public Eye Award for the worst company. You can all cast your vote to express your concerns over Foxconn's controversial business practices. The Taiwanese electronics manufacturer Foxconn produces high-end equipment for brands like Apple and Dell. Because of the military-style control enforced at the company’s Chinese production facilities at least 18 employees attempted suicide on company premises in the past year. Foxconn pays miserable wages and demands an extraordinary readiness for overtime work. At the same time, workers are rigorously controlled during and after work. They are bodysearched on the way to the toilet. Union rights are limited to membership in the company-controlled pseudo union.
