A recent report released by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee highlighted concerns over the safety of Amazon warehouse workers during peak shopping times, particularly the Prime Day sales event. The report, based on a year-long investigation and internal company data from 2019 and 2020, revealed that these high-demand periods led to increased injury rates among employees.
According to the findings, the holiday shopping season and Prime Day resulted in the highest weekly injury rates for Amazon warehouse workers. The report also included insights from interviews with over 100 current and former Amazon employees, shedding light on the challenging working conditions they face.
