Discuss foxconn treatment of employees


Discuss the below:

"Working Conditions at Foxconn"

• Employees at Foxconn factories described in the e-Activity (below) worked more hours than allowed under Chinese labor laws. Yet the violation of these standards is widespread in manufacturing and the demanding treatment of workers is commonly accepted. Compare and contrast the ethos of Foxconn with the basic tenets of ethical relativism. Assess the degree to which companies like Apple might be affected by such ethical relativism in the countries in which their suppliers operate.

• Workers' rights advocates and many consumers find Foxconn's treatment of employees as noted in the e-Activity (below) to be intuitively wrong. In order to support this moral judgment, it must be informed by an argument containing a moral principle. Suggest one moral principle that could support the moral judgment that the treatment of factory workers at Foxconn is ethically permissible. Speculate on a possible challenge that one could make to this moral principle, and outline a response to that challenge.
