Amazon Accused of Hiding Worker's Death for a Week, Making Employees Keep Working as Corpse Lay on Floor
"Despite seeing a 'body form laying lifeless,' Sam was instructed by his supervisor to 'please get back to work.' This callous response shocked employees and raised concerns about management's priorities."
"Sam, trained in CPR, expressed a desire to help the individual in distress, stating, 'I start sobbing and said, 'I want to help, please!' I know she's going to get tired and need to be subbed out.'"
"The supervisor's response to Sam was, 'Just turn around and not look. Let's get back to work,' indicating a troubling culture that prioritizes productivity over employee welfare."
Amazon's warehouse operations face scrutiny for high injury rates and alleged negligence regarding employee safety. A recent investigation revealed that after a worker's death, managers instructed employees to ignore the incident and continue working. An employee, referred to as Sam, witnessed the aftermath and was told by his supervisor to look away despite the distressing situation. This incident, along with a recent arson at a warehouse, highlights ongoing concerns about Amazon's treatment of workers and safety protocols.
