Last week, disgruntled employees working at Wistron’s Indian plant, a company that mainly produces iPhones in India, vandalized the plant’s offices and caused significant damage to property. Today, according to a new report, thousands of iPhones were also stolen at the riots causing total losses of Rs. 437 Crores ($59 Million) as per a preliminary financial assessment. A final figure will be released upon completing an uation of total losses.
上周,纬创在印度工厂的员工破坏了工厂的办公室,造成了严重的财产损失。纬创在印度的工厂主要生产iphone。今天,一份新的报告称,在骚乱中,数千部iphone被盗,初步的财务评估显示,总共损失43.7亿卢比(合5900万美元)。最终数字将在全面损失评估完成后公布。
The losses were mostly caused due to the theft of thousands of iPhones, The Times of India reports.
据《印度时报》报道,这些损失主要是由于数千部iphone被盗造成的。
Disgruntled employees claimed they were being paid inadequate wages by Wistron. An angry mob, then incited violence upon one of the offices breaking glass, destroying cameras, and burning vehicles.
心怀不满的员工声称纬创付给他们的工资不够。一名愤怒的暴民随后在其中一间办公室内煽动暴力,打碎玻璃,毁坏摄像机,焚烧车辆。
Karnataka Labour Minister Shivaram Hebbar told The Times of India that Wistron had contracted six subsidiary companies to hire 8,900 workers for its Kolar plant. And Industries Minister Jagadish Shettar said that the violence was a result of miscommunication between Wistron, the labor subsidiaries, and the employees.
卡纳塔克邦劳工部长希瓦拉姆·赫巴尔告诉《印度时报》,纬创资通已与6家子公司签订合同,为其科拉尔工厂雇佣8900名工人。工业部长Jagadish Shettar表示,暴力事件是纬创、劳工子公司和员工之间沟通不畅造成的。
“What we hear is that the company had made payments to the labor contractors, who delayed payments to the employees. This is being verified,” he said.
他说:“我们听说这家公司向劳务承包商付款,而承包商却推迟向员工付工资,这一点正在得到证实。”
Ultimately, according to Shettar, the labor department has issued notices to Wistron asking the iPhone manufacturer to pay its dues within three days.
最后,据赫巴尔称,美国劳工部已向纬创资通发出通知,要求iPhone制造商在三天内缴纳会费。
The Karnataka police have been tapping into CCTV footage to identify the culprits. So far, they’ve nabbed 160 people in connection with the violence. Apart from the stolen iPhones, an assessment made by Wistron’s Bengaluru administrator Prashanth TD revealed that other devices such as laptops and monitors were also missing from the plant.
卡纳塔克邦警方一直在查看录像以确定罪犯。到目前为止,他们已经逮捕了160名与暴力有关的人。纬创资通驻班加罗尔的管理人员Prashanth TD进行的一项评估显示,除了失窃的iphone外,该厂还丢失了笔记本电脑和显示器等其他设备。
The report also claims that discontent had been brewing among workers for a long time. The subsidiaries which Wistron relied upon to provide workers did not issue wages on time and representatives failed to do anything about it.
报告还称,工人们的不满情绪已经酝酿了很长一段时间。为纬创提供工人的子公司没有按时发工资,公司代表也没能对此采取任何行动。
