Workers are not allowed to form or belong to independent trade unions; all organisations have to officially register with and be approved by the government. 1232 There is only one trade union federation in China, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU), which is divided into regional federations and national industrial unions. 1233 It is the largest trade union worldwide; however its influence is determined. Unions occupy rather a minor position when it comes to negotiate collective contracts and salaries. There are admittedly collective contracts but they contain only minimum standards as required by national legislation. 1234 AUO has not established any trade union so far. 1235 Thus the influence of trade unions is probably rather weak. There are no official statistics about child labour in China. However, child labour is considered as a rising problem. Affected goods are bricks, cotton, electronics, fireworks, textiles, and toys. 1236 A percentage in the electronic sector cannot be stated. 1231 http://auo.com/auoDEV/pressroom.php?sec=newsReleases&intTempId=1&intNewsId=786 &ls=en 1232 www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2008/eap/119037.htm 1233 http://english.acftu.org/template/10002/file.jsp?cid=63&aid=156 1234 Metcalf/Li (2006) and interview with China Labour Bulletin 1235 AUO (2010), p. 92 1236 U.S. Department of Labor (2009), p. 15, China Labour Bulletin (2007) and www.ihlo.org/LR C/W/020807.html

There are more than 1,000 camps known, but it is assumed that there are much more. In these labour camps inmates produce several products from clothing to bricks through to toys and electronics. These products are offered on both national and international markets. The prisons have two names: a commercial name for trade and an official name as prison. 1237 There was no evidence found that AUO employs forced labourers. - China has no uniform minimum wage; provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions are allowed to set their own minimum wage. The minimum wage in the Jiangsu province amounts 960 CNY (114.47 EUR), the one in Shanghai is 1,120 CNY (128.96 EUR), and the one in Fujian amounts 700 - 900 CNY (ca. 80 - 100 EUR) in 2010. 1238 This minimum wage does not cover the living costs so that many workers are forced to work long hours. For instance, living costs in the industrial park Shenzhen were estimated to be more than 1,500 CNY (175.36 EUR), 1239 which are comparable to living costs in Suzhou. The basic wage is above the minimum level. The wage in Xiamen is for example 1000 CNY per month. In addition, AUO pays different allowances (positional allowance: 100 CNY/month, job allowance: 200 CNY/month, overnight allowance: 100 CNY/month) and a performance bonus of 0 - 450 CNY/month. 1240 50 - 60 hours/week 1241 1237 U.S. Department of Labor (2009), p. 15, Human Rights Watch (2010) and www.laogai.org/ our_work/laogai 1238 Yang (2010) 1239 FIAS (2007), p. 53 1240 Interview with worker 1241 Interview with worker 329
