In its response, Pegatron says that it will be looking into the negative claims made in the BBC piece.</p>  <p>According to a report by Digitimes:</p>

<p>In a statement filed on December 22 with the Taiwan Stock Exchange where the company is traded, Pegatron said it will inspect all the negative claims carried in the report and will start implementing improvements to ensure the problems are solved.</p>

<p>Additionally, Pegatron claims it regularly checks its factories to see where it can make improvements:</p>

<p>The company noted that it has established a high standard for and provided strict training to both its management and workers, and external inspectors also regularly check on its facilities to see if there is room for improvements.</p>
