Foxconn is getting plenty of attention over working conditions and employee suicides at its factories, but it seems that the electronics manufacturer may have somehow managed to quietly start installing some sort of suicide safety nets along its buildings.
According to a tipster, this photo is of Foxconn-owned buildings and shows some recently installed safety nets which are supposedly being put in place to prevent individuals from committing suicide by jumping off building roofs. It's possible that the nets serve some sort of other purpose, but this is the information we've received so far.

I guess that helps...

Wouldn't they SEE the nets and therefore jump elsewhere? =A=;;
OR instead of placing nets, actually FIX their working conditions or whatever's causing the suicides? o-o;;

This is totally the way to fix your problem. The employees cannot possibly think of some alternative way to off themselves~

if they get good working conditions and salaries, then that means more expensive products for America.
Not like Apple products aren't overpriced enough already.
