Epic Prime Day Deals lead to Epic Prime Day Injuries- Help Amazon Workers

The Issue

Prime Day deals lead to Epic Prime day injuries. Before you click to order on Prime Day, check out the link below. These photos offer a glimpse into the reality Amazon workers face every day. Your cost savings have led employees paying to deliver those price cuts. https://photos.app.goo.gl/VrP4tULr2K7rvvSL8

In order to fulfill orders, workers are forced to dig through dangerously overstuffed bins, heavy boxes falling causing sprains and concussions, retrieving items from collapsing bins and struggling to meet back-breaking quotas. It's even worse on Prime Day, when the company's already-lackluster on-site care is overwhelmed, and workers are forced to work injured. Amazon's injury rate is 80% higher than similar companies' injured worker rate. There's a reason why Amazon has a 150% annual employee turnover rate. 

For all these reasons and more, we're unionizing at Amazon's ALB1 warehouse in Schodack, NY. As a consumer, you have the power over a company's greed placing profit over people. Please sign petition below to demand that Amazon recognizes the Amazon Labor Union, creates safer conditions, respects worker health, and stop its rampant union-busting.
