Regional labour office gives a clean chit to Foxconn on alleged case of discrimination against married women

The regional labour commissioner, Chennai, in its submission to the central labour ministry on Wednesday, said there is no evidence supporting claims of discrimination against married women in the recruitment and employment processes at the Foxconn’s Chennai iPhone factory.

The ministry, however, is awaiting the response from the state government following which it will firm up its observations on the matter for submission to the National Human Rights Commission.
