Schoolchildren in China work overnight to produce Amazon Alexa devices

&gt;Leaked documents show children as young as 16 recruited by Amazon supplier Foxconn work gruelling and illegal hours<p>16 is a legal age to work in many places of Europe, including my very own country. What exactly am I missing here?<p>Also isn&#x27;t it a bit manipulative to call a 16 year old teenager a &quot;schoolchild&quot;?

The company said in a statement: “We have doubled the oversight and monitoring of the internship program with each relevant partner school to ensure that, under no circumstances, will interns [be] allowed to work overtime or nights.&quot;<p>My dear Chinese friends, does Chinese govt bother to punish FoxConn for this or overtime is just norm in industry ?

Sure, they don’t sleep yet they are able to assemble complex electrical equipment. Perfect reasonable, no need to question. I’ve also always believed it when told there are people who work three full time jobs. What amazing people!
