Chinese factory asks for 'no suicide' vowmsnbc.com news services updated 5/26/2010 10:36:27 AM ET

Foxconn International Holdings Ltd., one of Apple's Chinese manufacturers, is asking its employees to sign a pledge that they will not kill themselves as the company tries to control the damage from a spate of suicides among its work force.

The normally secretive Taiwanese company opened its sprawling factory complex in the southern city of Shenzhen to reporters Wednesday after a 19-year-old worker jumped to his death from a building, the ninth apparent suicide this year at the factory that makes iPods and iPhones.

Okay. And if a guy signs the pledge and then kills himself--what, he loses his job?
