Amazon delivery drivers in Italy ratified a new agreement in July that enhances pay, job rights, and slightly reduces working hours after a significant strike on April 18. This agreement follows a previous collective bargaining contract established in 2021 which improved working conditions and pay for workers. Over the next three years, driver pay and performance bonuses will gradually increase, with the full-time work week decreasing from 42 to 41 hours by 2027. The agreement also raises long-term contract coverage from 60 to 65 percent, improving job security for workers.
