Namely suicides.

8 so far since 2010 began. 30 more being attempts.

Article goes into how great the work environment is. It's not. At all. KYE isn't much better.

For the uninitiated, Foxconn makes a tremendous amount of things in electronics. Most things in anything computers probably have something Foxconn in them (for instance, a PCI slot).

And yet, it's still below the national suicide average.

I kinda figured there'd be a greater box. I know suicide tends to happen quite a bit more over in the East. The stress is apparently tremendous there in comparison to how we have it over here socially.
