NHRC orders investigation into Foxconn for alleged discrimination against married women in India.

India's National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has ordered a new investigation into Foxconn, the company that makes Apple iPhones, over allegations of discrimination against married women in hiring for assembly jobs in southern India. A Reuters investigation found Foxconn excluded married women from these roles, a practice the NHRC says labor officials inadequately investigated. The NHRC has given officials four weeks to conduct a thorough investigation.
