Amazon facing strike threats as Senate report details hidden widespread injuries
Briefly

Amazon warehouse workers are threatening to launch the first large-scale unfair labor practices strike amidst accusations from Senator Bernie Sanders about unsafe working conditions.
Senator Bernie Sanders' investigation reveals that Amazon's injury rates far exceed those of competitors, suggesting a pattern of neglect towards worker safety in favor of productivity.
Despite requests from Sanders' committee, Amazon's cooperation was minimal, providing limited information while allegedly manipulating workplace injury data to present a favorable image.
An inquiry, including interviews with nearly 500 workers, suggests that Amazon accepts injuries as a cost of doing business instead of proactively addressing safety concerns.
