4. Electronics Assembly





Have you thought of those who work behind your favourite electronic device whether it is your iPod or smartphone or laptop? There is workforce behind those handy technologies than those smiling sales persons in the cooling showrooms. People work in the electronics factories are more into a dangerous job. The stress for those who work in assembling electronic devices is said to be very high, as the competition is very tough between other organizations. The factories are accused for their ‘sweatshop’ work environment. Raised wages and psychological tests cannot help them out much. Adding to the psychological stresses they undergo, workers testing microchips and assembling LCDs are exposed to radiation that can even cause cancer.
