(Reuters) - Apple Inc found that some of the remote dormitory accommodations and dining rooms being used for employees at its supplier Foxconn's plant in southern India do not meet its standards, a spokesperson said.

"Following recent concerns about food safety and accommodation conditions at Foxconn Sriperumbudur, we dispatched independent auditors to undertake additional detailed assessments," an Apple spokesperson said.

"We found that some of the remote dormitory accommodations and dining rooms being used for employees do not meet our requirements and we are working with the supplier to ensure a comprehensive set of corrective actions are rapidly implemented."
