TAIPEI (Bloomberg): Apple’s partner Foxconn is offering bonuses of as much as US$1,800 to existing workers at its Zhengzhou facility, as it scrambles to sustain the staff levels it needs to run the world’s largest iPhone factory.

Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai Precision Industry, will top up wages in December and January for full-time workers who joined at the start of November or earlier, the company said in a notice over the weekend.
