Apple, Inc. is facing another criticism from Chinese environmental activists. They're hot on the company's heels, alleging that Apple's Chinese suppliers have been ignoring environmental laws. The technology giant is accused of violating its corporate responsibility standards. Here's more.
A group of Chinese environmental activists have accused Apple Inc. of turning a deaf ear to pollution hazards created by the manufacturing of its iconic iPhones, iPads, and other Apple merchandise.
A report published Wednesday accused Apple of violating its own corporate responsibility standards by using manufacturers that disregard anti-pollution laws.
According to Reuters, the 46-page report, published on the Beijing-based Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs' website (www.ipe.org.cn), stated that toxic discharges from Apple suppliers jeopardize public health and safety.
But Apple is defending itself. The tech giant said Thursday that it strives in "driving the highest standards of social responsibility."
According to Associated Press and Reuters, Apple stated that it requires its suppliers to provide safe working conditions, treat workers with dignity and respect, and utilize environmentally responsible production methods to make Apple products.
Reuters reported that this is not the first time Apple has been targeted for using suppliers that do not comply with anti-pollution regulations.
