Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company was accused by a group of its U.S. employees of concocting a “discriminatory scheme” that favors Taiwanese foreign workers.

Deborah Howington, a talent acquisition director, filed the class-action suit in August. She claims that the HR department created a workplace at TSMC where non-Asian employees

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) can’t produce 2nm chips outside of Tawain, according to J.W. Kuo, the country's Minister of Economic Affairs. The Arizona fab 21 is still on track to produce 4nm chips in 2025.

More than a dozen US-based employees of Taiwanese chipmaking giant TSMC have sued the company for apparent discrimination against non-Asian workers.

China's Taiwan Affairs Office said on Wednesday that a U.S. order to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co to halt shipments of advanced chips to some Chinese customers - as reported by Reuters - proved that the United States was "playing the Taiwan card" to raise tensions in the Taiwan Straits.

TSMC is being sued by current and former employees, including a talent acquisition director, over alleged employment discrimination. The employees claim that TSMC, the world's largest chipmaker, has favored employees who are Taiwanese citizens and forced out American workers.

TSMC’s Arizona plants will enable Apple chips for older devices to be made in the US for the first time, but things haven’t exactly been going to plan. The latest development is that a group of the company’s US workers have filed a lawsuit accusing the Taiwanese company of ‘anti-American discrimination’
