Apple chief executive Tim Cook has visited an iPhone production plant run by Foxconn Technology Group, which has faced widespread criticism over its treatment of workers.
Allegations of abuse stretch back to 2010 when 13 workers apparently committed suicide at one plant amidst claims that the company ran military-style production lines on which employees were forced to work overtime for low wages.
In 2011, Foxconn again faced criticism after a fire at another plant left four people dead.
