The world’s largest iPhone factory in Zhengzhou, in central Hunan province, has started increasing pay scales to lure temporary workers.<\/p>\n

A Tuesday post on WeChat by one of Foxconn’s recruiting agencies said workers who stayed at the factory for three months would qualify for a bonus of up to 8,000 yuan (US$1,113), a significant hike from early July when the three-month bonus was up to 4,500 yuan.<\/p>\n

Workers can earn 28 yuan per hour, up from 23.5 yuan per hour in early July. The hourly rate was raised to 24 yuan in mid-July, 25 yuan later last month, and 27 yuan in early August, according to recruitment agency Zhengzhou Fugonglian Human Resources.<\/p>\n

In Shenzhen, the tech hub in southern Guangdong province, Foxconn’s Integrated Digital Product Business Group – responsible for smartphone manufacturing – is offering 26 yuan per hour for contract workers, according to a recruitment notice posted on WeChat on Wednesday. The notice said the rate lasts until November 30.<\/p>\n

In the same factory, workers responsible for other products earn a lower rate. For example, the post said that the Bluetooth earphone unit paid 22 yuan per hour.<\/p>\n
