Apple has confirmed with。 Mashable 。that some high school interns at the iPhone-producing Foxconn plant in China worked overtime to produce iPhones. 。

In a statement, an Apple spokesperson acknowledged the students should not have been working overtime to assemble Apple's latest, gleaming handsets. The students said they worked up to 11 hours a day. 。

Zeng said he worked 12 hours a day screwing "1,800 screws into 1,800 iPhones" six days a week. He made the equivalent of around $450 a month, even when working overtime.。
“What shocks me is that overtime is involuntary," Zeng said. “[The workers] are actually kind of forced to do overtime.”
