"Employees reported that they were told to continue working even as a colleague lay dead on the concrete floor, which they found horrifying."
"One CPR-trained employee pleaded with a manager to assist in giving medical aid but was denied the opportunity to help."
On April 6, a worker collapsed at an Amazon warehouse near Portland, leading to a 911 call reporting extensive blood and a belief that he was dead. Employees allege that managers instructed them to keep working despite the situation. The deceased, a 46-year-old tote runner, was not identified for over a week, and Amazon has not provided details about his death, attributing it to a pre-existing medical condition. Employees expressed horror at being told to ignore the incident while attempting to assist the man.
