Samsung’s own team will visit Chinese factory tomorrow to investigate child labor claims
Samsung send their own team of inspectors to check whats happening in China Factory.
Some rumors say: children are working inside the factory of HEG.
Samsung Electronics has conducted two separate on-site inspections on HEG’s working conditions this year but found no irregularities on those occasions.
A team of inspectors consisting of Samsung personnel from Korea headquarters will be dispatched to Huizhou, China on August 9, and it will immediately launch an investigation and take appropriate measures to correct any problems that may surface.
Samsung Electronics is a company held to the highest standards of working conditions and we try to maintain that at our facilities and the facilities of partner companies around the world.
LOL! As long as inspections are expected, it is unlikely that Samsung will find anything untoward… only surprise inspections will show problems up, surely- and I doubt that Samsung and HEG have a contract that supports or demands surprise inspections… Child labour in China is obviously an issue. Perhaps Samsung and Apple can use some of their profits to support companies like Foxconn and HEG in not exploiting ANY of their workers…

Be great if it was un-announced visits to the factories then they would get a real idea of what goes on.1st class honours to samsung for actually going & checking unlike most of others.Rest are more interested in price per item & not who makes them.
