HONG KONG -- Apple supplier Foxconn has responded to unrest at the world's biggest iPhone factory by offering some workers 10,000 yuan ($1,400) to leave the Zhengzhou plant, which is battling labor shortages amid a COVID-19 outbreak.
The offers to some recently recruited workers came as authorities in Zhengzhou prepared to impose a five-day lockdown of the city from the end of Thursday in a bid to curb the spread of COVID-19.
