People also did this with Foxconn. Supposedly at Foxconn's scale, the suicide rate wasn't alarming, but with people living in dorms and having suicide nets set up, it looks bad.

It wasn't clear when I read that the rate wasn't alarming if they were comparing the Foxconn rate to the entire general population rate or just the employed general population rate.

I think the difference is obvious.

It was very much Foxconn spinning it as to be expected. I have no idea how much to trust that.
There was also a big case in France https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-50865211
