entry rewards are up to 9,500 yuan
Public information shows that the Zhengzhou factory is the main manufacturing base for Foxconn to produce iPhone. During its peak period, there are more than 90 production lines and about 350,000 workers. About half of the world's Apple phones come from the Zhengzhou Foxconn factory.
According to the announcement of the Zhengzhou Foxconn iDPBG business group, the factory will start recruiting workers from February 4, with an internal recommendation bonus of 6,000 yuan. At present, in order to increase the amount of recruitment, Foxconn has increased its recommendation bonus after the holiday. Starting from February 6, the internal recommendation bonus has increased from the original 6,000 yuan to 8,000 yuan, an increase of more than 33%.
high rewards reflect the urgent demand for front-line workers in the factory.
htmlOn December 8, the reporter learned from the latest recruitment policy of Foxconn Zhengzhou Science and Technology Park that in order to cope with the large demand for front-line technical workers after the holiday, the factory has carried out a variety of reward policies. For example: Foxconn’s basic technology recruitment at Bada Street, a maximum reward of 9,500 yuan can be given during peak season, and a monthly comprehensive income can reach 5,500 to 6,500 yuan; the internal recommendation bonus of Foxconn Glass Group Manufacturing Office in Hong Kong can reach 8,500 yuan, and the first resignation reward of re-employment can be given 9,000 yuan.
"For the current order volume, our demand for front-line workers is quite large. The more you have, the better." Pan Deqing, head of human resources recruitment at Foxconn Zhengzhou Science and Technology Park, introduced that since 2018, they have been optimizing the issuance of reward funds, no longer through third-party cooperative companies, but directly paying them to front-line workers themselves with their wages.
In addition, in addition to front-line technical workers, Zhengzhou Foxconn's campus recruitment and social recruitment for management and high-skilled personnel is also underway. The demand for this year is about 1,000 people, involving more than 20 related majors such as big data, automation, and intelligent manufacturing.

"Rewards are the 'barometer' of orders, and exists, which is reasonable "
Some people believe that the onboarding reward is a very effective means to deal with larger employment needs in the short term, while others believe that this reward mechanism has risks and many uncertainties in the long run.
After all, many people apply for the job for the reward, and getting the full reward requires certain conditions. As for the Zhengzhou factory, if you want to get a total recommended bonus of 8,000 yuan, you must meet the basic conditions of 90 days of joining the company and having an effective attendance rate of 55 days. The factory does this in the hope of motivating employees to stay in office for a long time.
In the view of Li Chengwei, Secretary-General of Zhengzhou Human Resources Association, the reward is a "barometer" of the order, and it is reasonable to exist. He said that when the order volume is large, the demand for employment is also high, and the rewards will naturally rise. When the order volume is small, the employment will decrease, and front-line technical workers will naturally leave the factory. "And the bonus is a powerful means to adjust the amount of labor. From the perspective of human resource management, enterprises can adopt this more flexible employment method to fill the employment demand during peak seasons. "
Li Chengwei said that Foxconn's employment demand this year is nearly half a month ahead of previous years. "March, April and 80 or 90 years are the peak seasons for factories every year."
As an important smartphone production base in the world and the largest single-unit production base in the mainland, Foxconn in the Hong Kong area has undertaken nearly 80% of Foxconn's smartphone production capacity in the mainland. The reporter also learned from insiders that Apple will release a new iPhone SE phone in the spring and support 5G signals. Foxconn's natural labor demand in Hong Kong has increased significantly.
