Foxconn's Zhengzhou plant in Central China's Henan Province announced on Tuesday that it would pay a record daily bonus of 400 yuan to encourage its workers to stay on the production line, as the company moves to restore operations amid a recent COVID-19 outbreak.
After some workers left the factory in recent days amid the outbreak, Foxconn said in a recruitment notice that it would offer the new bonus, a significant rise from the original 100 yuan per day.
The new arrangement is for the company's iDPBG group, which makes iPhones, and the offer is valid for November.
For those with full attendance in November, they can get an extra bonus of up to 15,000 yuan, in addition to their daily bonus, Foxconn said.
针对自愿留厂的员工,富士康郑州科技园公众号发布了一则“激励新政”。截至目前,自11月1日至11月30日,iDPBG(integrated Digital Product Business Group,数位产品事业群)郑州厂区正常出勤的全体员工出勤补贴翻倍至400元/天。过去为应对生产旺季以及保持老员工队伍的稳定,富士康也曾多次出台出勤补贴政策和返费等,但补贴标准提高至400元的情况极其罕见。
