Multiple reports indicate that instances of child labor have been uncovered in Apple's supply chain, particularly in Asia.
Specifically,
In 2011, Apple's report found 91 children working at 10 facilities, a rise from 11 in 2009. The company ordered most to pay for the children's education costs and fired one contractor for overlooking the issue.
In 2013, audits revealed that children were employed at 11 factories involved in making Apple's products, some with forged identification documents.
These reports highlight that recruitment agencies and vocational schools were sometimes involved in supplying underage workers with falsified documents, posing challenges for factory management. Apple has responded by intensifying its search for underage workers and severing ties with suppliers violating its code of conduct. However, some critics suggest that Apple's actions are primarily aimed at image building rather than ensuring full compliance with labor rights.
