Reporter night probe GE sweat factory is not poisonous (Photos)







GE was exposed to sweat factory survey: shadow under the bulb

The reporter's night probe Tongshida plant department manager admitted that "mercury-free" is currently unable to respond to Tongshida's response to foreign institutions survey "not true"

Manager: Working hours must be more than 12 hours

“Working 12 hours a day” “When you go to the toilet, you have to report to the team leader.” “You can deduct a salary of 20 yuan a day.” The business covers energy, medical, finance, household appliances, media and entertainment, etc. The annual income is in the US$10 billion. Is the huge business group General Electric (GE), as the report of PolicyMattersOhio, say that its joint venture factory in Xiamen is “squeezing workers' sweats”?

In order to find out the truth, the "Daily Economic News" reporter launched a full-scale investigation yesterday.

Department manager: It’s a layman who takes the mercury out of the standard.

Wang Wei (pseudonym) is the department manager of Topstar. Is the factory “toxic and hazardous substances seriously exceeded the standard”? Wang Wei said: “We have done a good job, and the domestic production environment is much worse than our poor factory.” Mercury exceeding the standard is a common problem in the lighting industry. "It is still not possible at present.

Wang Wei stressed: "With the mercury exceeding the standard, it is the layman's words." For the workers who work more than 12 hours a day, and ask for deductions, Wang Hao refuses to answer.

Lab Manager: Working hours must be more than 12 hours

Li Jun (a pseudonym), the lab manager who is about to leave from Tongshida, said that as far as he knows, the workers in the factory are all "three shifts" and work every day "definitely more than 12 hours." The reason why it is overloaded, because "workers want to make money", Topstar is paid by piece. The basic salary of the Topstar workers is the same as the local minimum wage, which is 750 yuan. However, "the situation outside the island in Xiamen Island is different. The workers at the two bases outside the island have wages of eight or nine hundred years ago."

The wife of the original employee: Fortunately, my husband is not on the production line.

Wang Xin (pseudonym)'s husband was the manager of the Toshida Lighting LED Project from 2002 to 2005. For the rumors that Topstar Lighting is a “sweatshop”, she admits that “something is heard”.

Wang Xin told reporters that because her husband is "in the office," she "had seen relevant pictures on the Internet" and felt that "fortunately, her husband is not in the production line."

Reporter's note: What you see is not just the light

Yesterday, the reporter of “Daily Economic News” not only visited the GE Xiamen joint venture factory, but also had a face-to-face dialogue with the workers. He also interviewed the company’s partners and competitors and indirectly learned about the company’s description from their description. Employment situation.

What surprised the reporter most was that after interviewing the company's in-service, retired employees and family members, one of the findings was distressing: a 20-page report compared to foreign institutions' large-scale investigations – many of which are full of The fierce rhetoric of "enthusia" is really in the hands of Xiamen Tongshida employees who are dismissed as "sweatshops". They generally show habits for working hours of more than 60 hours of work per week and long-term toxic and harmful substances. Generally expressed indifferent!

Looking at the suburbs of Shanghai, the wind power generation devices that reflect GE's “greenmagination” and the use of advanced energy technologies are neatly arranged one by one. When the wind blows, the “big windmill” will slowly rotate and match the scarecrow on the farmland next to it. Not far from the woods, there are squirrels in the woods... Seeing such a beautiful picture of modern technology and harmony with nature, who can think of GE, also the core of modern technology, its form of expression is boundless The difference: workers in the airtight, under-lighted workshops, sweating, lack of energy, health and worry workers, running in front of the production line.

In GE's latest annual report, it was written: "We are a safe and reliable growth company." When the company with annual sales of more than 20 billion made a good promise to its investors, did its operators ever think that this piece of China will at least digest one quarter of its annual sales and give it to it? On this piece of land with the highest honor of corporate social responsibility, there is still a “sweatshop” operated by GE and allegedly suspected of illegal employment.

What do you see, is it just the tip of the iceberg?"
