How about Foxconn's security?

Everyone who enters Foxconn will be told: Never offend the security guard. It is hard to imagine that Foxconn has so many ways and skills to protect its employees. Every employee has to go through security check before leaving the factory, and the security guard can detain the employee at any time. And if you are late for this, the manager of the production workshop won't believe any reason. In Foxconn, there have also been cases where the team leader in charge of thousands of people was dismissed for offending the security guards. The strength of security also lies in strength and responsiveness. Moreover, if the security guards are offended in one place, as long as the security guards say hello to each other, employees may be blocked when they pass through all security checkpoints. The reason is nothing more than delaying time. If an employee is suspected of violating safety discipline, the security guard can also issue a disciplinary report, which is the legendary "red list". As soon as the "red list" comes out, the employees under investigation must leave their jobs.

The power of security is great, and Foxconn's special security system is behind it.

Since Foxconn officially tried out "networked supervision" on June 2, 2006, its competitiveness in receiving orders has been greatly improved. Japan's Cisco, IBM, Apple Computer, Sony and other multinational companies have sent billions of dollars in production orders. The special customs supervision mode has also turned the safety management of Foxconn factory into an independent safety scope. Foxconn safety has considerable control within a certain range.

In the training course for some reserve cadres inside Foxconn, the lecturer clearly pointed out that Foxconn Park is controlled by four lines of defense: the first line of defense is the gate around the park. According to different directions, these gates are responsible for visiting, recruiting and transporting living materials for foreign tourists. The second line of defense is the doorpost of the factory and life; The third line of defense is research and development sites, important material warehouses and important production workshops; The fourth line of defense is mobile patrol personnel. As far as the high degree of confidentiality required for enterprise development is concerned, Foxconn's four lines of control and defense are reasonable, but it is also inevitable to be harsh.

Foxconn's annual export volume is as high as 50-60 billion US dollars, accounting for about 20% of Shenzhen's export volume. In this case, Shenzhen Customs set up the bonded area in Foxconn's factory area, and Foxconn's gate is just like the customs, so its security requirements can be imagined. Judging from Foxconn's recruitment requirements for security guards, we may also understand this security system culture. Foxconn has special requirements for recruiting security guards. In some recruitment announcements, it is required that security guards should be veterans, and it is emphasized that "obeying the command of superiors has a strong sense of collective honor".

For the security groups of enterprises, security guards who meet this recruitment requirement do not need ideological and political education. Because when I was a soldier, this consciousness had been well trained. In enterprises, the popular Jianghu habits naturally strengthen the hidden rule of "rule by man".

In Foxconn's employee handbook, thousands of words of basic rules and regulations involve all the details of management, and the organizational structure is clear. But institutional norms do not mean that they can be implemented. In Foxconn, many things do not follow the system, but follow the "loyalty of rivers and lakes." I'm afraid this is also an important reason why Foxconn's safety is "mixed"-lack of effective supervision and too much emphasis on confidentiality, Foxconn's safety is "unimaginable".
