Warehouse workers at Amazon's largest air freight facility on the West Coast walked off the job Monday, demanding higher pay and relief from hot conditions they say are unsafe.
Organizers with a group called Inland Empire Amazon Workers United said in a Facebook post that 160 employees walked out at the San Bernardino International Airport facility, which is a critical part of Amazon's logistics network and one of the company's three U.S. "air hubs."
In a statement, Amazon officials disputed the number, saying that 74 out of roughly 1,500 employees at the facility walked out.
