Foxconn reopens Indian factory

The iPhone manufacturer Foxconn has reopened a factory in India which was shut down temporarily when 250 workers fell sick, sending its shares up 9%. The plant in Madras (Chennai), which makes mobile phone parts, was closed last Monday after workers complained of nausea and giddiness. Work resumed on Saturday after the firm received clearance from the government. Working conditions at Foxconn factories have caused concern, after a string of suicides this year at a plant in China. The company has said it is taking the deaths seriously, even though a local government investigation did not blame working conditions.
