The Fair Labor Association (FLA), which has partnered with Apple in order to perform independent audits of its suppliers in China, says it has so far found “tons of issues” at a Foxconn plant in Shenzen. The comments came during the same week as an ABC News television report on Foxconn, which has prompted Foxconn, Apple, and the FLA to each issue their own response to parts of the report. Meanwhile, it seems likely that Apple CEO Tim Cook will be asked by labor groups to address working conditions at Apple’s suppliers during the company’s shareholder meeting scheduled to take place today.
