To cut costs, managers make workers use cheap chemicals that cause\x26nbsp;neurological damage. There has been a rash of suicides at the Foxconn plant, and\x26nbsp;300 workers recently threatened to jump off the roof\x26nbsp;over a safety and pay dispute.\x0aIn short, as one former Apple executive told the\x26nbsp;New York Times,\x26nbsp;\x26ldquo;Most people would be really disturbed if they saw where their iPhone comes from.\x26rdquo;\x0aMark Shields, a self-described member of the \x26ldquo;cult of Mac,\x26rdquo; started\x26nbsp;a petition on Change.org demanding Apple exert its influence on its suppliers to improve working conditions for the factory workers that make iPhones, iPads and other Apple products.Click here to sign Mark\x26rsquo;s petition right now.\x0aApple knows it can play an important role in ensuring safe and fair working conditions for the workers at its suppliers, like Foxconn. In 2005, the company released a supplier code of conduct, and it performs hundreds of audits each year in China and around the world to confirm its suppliers are meeting the code\x26rsquo;s expectations.\x0aBut that\x26rsquo;s where Apple\x26rsquo;s commitment falters: the number of supplier violations has held steady year to year and\x26nbsp;Apple hasn\x26rsquo;t consistently publicly stated which suppliers have problems or dropped offending suppliers.\x0aThe bottom line, Apple executives admit, is that they\x26rsquo;re not being forced to change.\x0aOne current executive told the\x26nbsp;New York Times\x26nbsp;that there\x26rsquo;s a trade-off: \x26ldquo;You can either manufacture in comfortable, worker-friendly factories,\x26rdquo; he said, or you can \x26ldquo;make it better and faster and cheaper, which requires factories that seem harsh by American standards.And right now, customers care more about a new iPhone than working conditions in China.\x26rdquo;\x0aThat means public pressure is the only thing that can force Apple to ensure its suppliers treat workers humanely. If enough people sign Mark\x26rsquo;s petition \x26mdash; and tell Apple they care more about human beings than they do about how fast the company can produce the next generation iPhone \x26mdash; the company could be convinced to make real change for the workers at Foxconn and other factories.\x0a\x26nbsp;Click here to sign Mark\x26rsquo;s petition demanding Apple change the way it does business.\x26rdquo;\x0a- Amanda, change.org\x26nbsp;\x0a\x22 class=\x22tumblr_photo\x22/\x3e\x0a                \x0a                \x0a                    \x3cdiv class=\x22tumblr_caption\x22\x3e\x0a                        \x3cp\x3e\x3ca class=\x22tumblr_blog\x22 href=\x22http://nascentbeing.tumblr.com/post/16679823638/tw-suicide-according-to-the-new-york-times\x22 target=\x22_blank\x22\x3enascentbeing\x3c/a\x3e:\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cblockquote\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3e(tw:suicide)\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3e\u201c\x3cspan\x3eAccording to the\x3c/span\x3e\x3cspan\x3e\u00a0\x3c/span\x3e\x3cem\x3eNew York Times\x3c/em\x3e\x3cspan\x3e, workers at a factory in Shenzhen, China, owned by Foxconn (a company that manufactures iPhones, iPads and other devices for Apple) regularly work sixteen-hour, seven-day work weeks.\x3c/span\x3e\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3eThey stand until their\u00a0\x3cstrong\x3elegs swell and they can\u2019t walk\x3c/strong\x3e, and they perform repetitive motions on the production line for so long that some\u00a0\x3cstrong\x3epermanently lose the use of their hands\x3c/strong\x3e.

In 2005, the company released a supplier code of conduct, and it performs hundreds of audits each year in China and around the world to confirm its suppliers are meeting the code\u2019s expectations.\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3eBut that\u2019s where Apple\u2019s commitment falters: the number of supplier violations has held steady year to year and\u00a0\x3cstrong\x3eApple hasn\u2019t consistently publicly stated which suppliers have problems or dropped offending suppliers.\x3c/strong\x3e\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3eThe bottom line, Apple executives admit, is that they\u2019re not being forced to change.\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3eOne current executive told the\u00a0\x3cem\x3eNew York Times\x3c/em\x3e\u00a0that there\u2019s a trade-off: \u201cYou can either manufacture in comfortable, worker-friendly factories,\u201d he said, or you can \u201cmake it better and faster and cheaper, which requires factories that seem harsh by American standards.\x3cstrong\x3eAnd right now, customers care more about a new iPhone than working conditions in China.\u201d\x3c/strong\x3e\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3eThat means public pressure is the only thing that can force Apple to ensure its suppliers treat workers humanely. If enough people sign Mark\u2019s petition \u2014 and tell Apple they care more about human beings than they do about how fast the company can produce the next generation iPhone \u2014 the company could be convinced to make real change for the workers at Foxconn and other factories.\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3e\x3cstrong\x3e\u00a0\x3c/strong\x3e\x3cstrong\x3e\x3ca href=\x22http://www.change.org/petitions/apple-ceo-tim-cook-protect-workers-making-iphones-in-chinese-factories?alert_id=cCrXilylJN_fqzqPOHoVw\x26amp;utm_source=action_alert\x26amp;me=aa\x26amp;utm_medium=email\x22 target=\x22_blank\x22\x3eClick here to sign Mark\u2019s petition demanding Apple change the way it does business.\x3c/a\x3e\u201d\x3c/strong\x3e\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3cp\x3e\x3cstrong\x3e- \x3c/strong\x3eAmanda, change.org\u00a0\x3c/p\x3e\x0a\x3c/blockquote\x3e\x0a                    \x3c/div\x3e\x0a                \x0a            \x3c/li\x3e\x0a        \x0a\x0a        \x0a\x0a        \x0a        \x0a        \x0a        \x0a        \x0a\x0a                        \x0a    \x0a        \x0a\x0a        \x0a            \x3cli class=\x22tumblr_post tumblr_photo_post\x22\x3e\x0a                \x3cimg src=\x22http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyiz9mE7oa1qhnhs4o1_400.png\x22 alt=\x22axelaustteam:\x0a\x0a\x26ldquo;Beagles are the most popular breed for lab use because of their friendly, docile, trusting, forgiving, people-pleasing personalities.
