Payment of Wages Act (PWA) of 1936, the Factories Act (FA) of 1948 and the Contract Labour,
Regulation and Abolition Act (CLRA) of 1970.
Wistron blames the issue of the payment of salaries to a software ‘glitch’ on its system, which could cushion the blow.Supplier of Apple iPhones in India, Wistron, claims a software ‘glitch’ is the reason why its contract employees’ salaries were being unfairly deducted and payments were four days late.

Bengaluru: Upset and embarrassed over the incident of violence and hooliganism in the Wistron plant near Bengaluru that manufactures iPhones for Apple, the Central government has pulled up the Karnataka government.
The Centre has expressed ‘deep concern’ over the violence. The Union cabinet secretary Rajiv Gauba reportedly held a video conference with Karnataka chief secretary TM Vijay Bhaskar and other senior officials.
“They asked us to handle the situation deftly and take immediate steps to restart the factory,” a senior official was quoted in the media. “They were upset at the government’s intelligence-gathering agencies and the delay by the police in responding to the violence,” he added.
