Bengaluru, March 10 : Apple’s iPhone contract manufacturer Wistron Corporation of Taiwan resumed operations at its mobile plant in Karnataka’s Kolar town, state Industries Minister Jagadish Shettar said on Wednesday.
“Wistron resumed operations at its Kolar plant after it remained shut since December 12 following a violent attack on its facility by a section of its staff over delayed payments and longer shifts,” Shettar told reporters at Narasapura industrial area, about 70km east of Bengaluru.
Terming the violent attack on the plant unfortunate, Shettar said Karnataka was an industrial-friendly state and the government was working hard to create a conducive environment for industries.
“As the violence occurred due to wage-related issues and led to its sudden shutdown, we do not want a repeat of such incidents,” said Shettar.
The minister told Wistron employees to approach the district administration to resolve issues related to their wages and working.
“No issue can be resolved through violence. The factory stopped production due to violent incidents on December 12 and disrupted operations. In future, try to find an amicable solution with the management and district officials and do not resort to violence,” reiterated Shettar.
