TAIPEI – More than 20,000 employees, most of them new hires not yet working on the production line, have left Apple supplier Foxconn’s Zhengzhou plant in China, a Foxconn source familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday.

The latest unrest exposed communication problems and a mistrust of Foxconn management among some staff, with some workers accusing the company of not acting effectively to curb the spread of Covid-19 and then misleading them over wages. Men smashed surveillance cameras and clashed with security personnel, as hundreds of workers protested at the Zhengzhou plant on Wednesday.

Foxconn’s apology on Thursday was an about-face from a day earlier when it said it had fulfilled its payment contracts.
