More Amazon Workers Plan to Strike Over Lack of COVID-19 Protection
More Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) workers say they are planning to go on strike, contending the e-commerce giant is not doing enough to protect them from exposure to COVID-19 on the job.
The Verge reports that workers at Detroit's DTW1 fulfillment center intend to walk out over a number of concerns, among them that Amazon failed to notify them when the first case of COVID-19 at the plant was diagnosed, and delayed in letting them know after a second worker was confirmed to have contracted the coronavirus.
Now, they're calling for the facility to be closed down and thoroughly cleaned. After that, they're asking for more cleaning supplies to be made available, stronger safety measures, and more transparency when it comes to informing them if co-workers are found to have COVID-19.
