How about Apple starting a $2 per hour minimum wage for its vendor employees? It would be great PR.

You didn't mention or source any of that in the OP...edpell said:It is a discussion of the working conditions in the Foxxcon factories used by the Apple Corporation.
The current minimum wage for Apple employees is $2 per hour.
No, $2 per hour is not considered a livable wage for Apple employees. The cost of living in most areas where Apple has employees is much higher than that.
The decision to pay employees $2 per hour is not made by Apple. It is likely a result of outsourcing production to countries with lower minimum wage laws.
There is no official statement from Apple about increasing their minimum wage for employees. However, they have recently faced pressure from labor rights groups to improve working conditions and wages for their employees.
Apple's minimum wage of $2 per hour is significantly lower than other tech companies such as Google and Facebook, who have a minimum wage of $15 per hour. However, it is important to note that Apple's employees may receive additional benefits and perks that could contribute to their overall compensation.
