Amazon: Strike because it works with too many COVID-19 cases

Amazon workers in six cities across Germany plan to go on strike on Monday as dozens of staff at the company's logistics centers have been infected with the coronavirus. they said members of the Reuters workers' union.

The association states that the company gives on profits rather than worker safety.

The Verdi trade union says "at least 30 to 40 colleagues have been infected" with the virus, according to Reuters. The strike will last 48 hours and will be held under the slogan "good and healthy work."

Employees at Amazon warehouses in Germany have gone on strike several times in recent years over wages and working conditions.

In recent months, workers at Amazon's US warehouses have protested what they believe are unsafe working conditions and walked out. them in several cities.

Employees criticized the company for not notifying all employees when their colleagues tested positive for coronavirus.

In fact, three workers from an Amazon warehouse in New York exercised against the company, alleging that the company put them and their families at risk of contracting the virus.

At least seven workers at Amazon's US warehouses have died from since the beginning of the epidemic.

Monday's strikes are also planned for Amazon's Leipzig, Bad Hersfeld, Rheinberg, Werne and Koblenz sites, Reuters reports. Germany is the second largest e-commerce company after the United States.
