A modern day concentration and to_rture camp. But better than being on the streets.

Look England. This is what it's like when you go to work, produce, and earn.

There always has to be the one Yank who somehow thinks it ok to call the British and yet at the same time, reads an online British newspaper. Strange.

Thats nothing you want to see what the person who answers the 111 NHS line put up with; 16 hours days at minimum wage & most of then are under 21 so the £5.30 & its a lot more stressful than putting iphones together

There work dress is perfectly normal for people working in a clean, static free, electronic assembly environment. The larger the plant the more workers it needs, so that means all those pictures show a large workforce in a normal environment, with a lot of hi-tech security....................cheers

True. But the pay is bad. Not acceptable. This is the reason Apple is the most profitable company in the world. I'm a designer and have mainly used Apple devices since 1989, though I have PCs. We pay a lot more for our machines than PC buyers do. They are simply better - easier system to operate and much less likely to be hacked. But I would much rather these people were paid and treated better, and that Apple would stop parking their profits overseas - $11 Billion dollars in US taxes skipped in each of the last four years. The company is obscene.

Very interesting to see -- seems rather impersonal with 50K employees on a given shift. That is massive -- but appears clean, well-organized, very high tech, etc. Also, appears that the workers are all under ~ 30 years of age, then perhaps they move to higher positions? In any case, jobs are cherished & in high demand in countries where easily obtainable benefits are not available -- so I would imagine that just as we have at poultry factories; meat packing plants; prepared food plants (cereals, potato chips, frozen food prep, canning, etc. factories) -- these jobs are desperately needed.

Apple is garbage, but every human wants to behave like a bot.

What a gold plated opportunity for Chinese intelligence to bug every phone made in the factory. Having access to all the tech, they could bury this so deep Apple would never know.

Using an iPad for roll call? That's not very original ...

If we made them here in US the phone would cost 5 grand. Anyone that thinks we can bring this work here is lying to themselves. That supply chain alone would be impossible to change. Politicians are fooling the people about these issues and need supply chain and manufacturing experts as advisors.

Just wait till the Donald gets to be President. Apple will be in for a rather expensive shock

Forget the stupid iphones...What the heck happened to the BEST RATED comment on the story about the people stealing water after the marathon? There were over 70,000 green arrows and now the comment has disappeared. Very sinister indeed DM!!!!!!
