The recall of engineers is the second in recent months, and comes as Beijing reportedly curbs tech exports to prevent manufacturing departures
The Economic Times earlier reported that Yuzhan’s Chinese staff were leaving. Last month, Bloomberg News reported that Foxconn had asked hundreds of Chinese engineers and technicians to return home from its iPhone factories in India.
The Yuzhan factory makes enclosures, or metal cases, and display modules for older iPhone models and isn’t working on the latest iPhone 17 line as yet. It began production just months ago, and Apple still imports a bulk of its displays, the people said.
Apple and Foxconn representatives didn’t respond to requests for comment.
