Although the products are good , the production of Apple devices often encounter problems . In terms of human resources , for example, Apple does not humanize humans often assessed by forcing workers to work out of the ordinary .

As reported by The Verge ( 7/11 ) , it again emerged thanks to a report from Bloomberg Businessweek . Mentioned , the iPhone 5 production whose products are successful , there are many violations of the rights of the work done by partner Apple .

One of them came from Flextronics International, a major supplier of Apple in terms of assembling the device . Allegedly , Flextronics employs people of Indonesia and some other countries in Southeast Asia unethical manner .

Flextronics hire a labor brokers to look for workers who come from disadvantaged backgrounds . Labor is then promised a large salary but must first pay huge registration fee .

The cost is equivalent to the salary mentioned for a year that the worker will be accepted . This does not include the cost will flower if the workers are not paid in cash .

In addition , workers are also required to surrender their passports on labor brokers as collateral for the debt . As a result of this , too many workers are forced to sell their property to cover the debt.
