It s been revealed that roughly 175,000 tech factory workers in the northern provinces of Bac Ninh and Bac Giang in Vietnam, as well as in Ho Chi Minh City in the south, currently live in or close to their workplaces, sleeping in metal bunk beds or tents on the factory floor.
The workers are employed by major tech companies such as Luxshare - the primary assembler of Apple s AirPods - Foxconn and Samsung. The measure, Bloomberg reports, is part of an attempt to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Until April this year, Vietnam had got off relatively lightly, but has since experienced a rise in infections.
