A new article published today by theSouth China Morning Postassures that several major Apple suppliers have boosted their recruitment program,as the giant Foxconn was able to do a few weeks earlier. A strategy which results in particular in hiring bonuses that are larger than usual, intended to face fierce competition in the manufacturing market, particularly among younger people.
Hon Hai also followed suit, with a record bonus of 10,200 yuan (including 700 donated to a potential sponsor). At the current exchange rate, this figure corresponds to more than 1,300 euros, more than three times the minimum wage imposed by the Middle Kingdom. But this amount comes at a price: commitment. Indeed, those who choose to join the company by taking advantage of this offer must promise to remain loyal to it for three months. Difficult to hold on, when you know thatsome employees only find suicide as a way out…
Luxshare in the loop
Newcomer to the assembly of the supposed iPhone 13 Pro, Luxshare has also chosen to reward those who join its workforce. The firm thus invested in a return incentive of 3,800 yuan (around 500 euros) intended for employees who had previously left its teams. However, today's report does not specify how many workers have been able to benefit from it so far.
In order to better understand these numbers, it is essential to correlate them with the recent estimates of several analysts concerning hypothetical sales of upcoming mobile phones. Dan Ives, executive at Wedbush Securities, is counting on 130 to 150 million units produced in the second half of 2021 alone. A record, quite simply.
An impact on the September keynote?
As many already know, other relatively reliable rumors assure that the iPhone 13 should see the light of day during the traditional end-of-year conference organized by Apple at the Steve Jobs Theater. This would therefore take place in just a few weeks, one of the possible reasons behind these renewals of pace in Asia. It is of course impossible to know if production will meet deadlines, but the lights still seem green for the moment, whether on the side of transporters or factories.
