Some Amazon employees in Seattle plan to walk off the job to show their frustration with recent layoffs, return-to-office mandates and a lack of action to address the company's impact on climate change, organizers said.
A group of workers is urging their colleagues to walk out May 31, a week after Amazon's annual shareholder meeting and a month after the company's return-to-office mandate took effect. The Washington Post first reported on the plans Monday.
The action hinges on at least 1,000 Amazon employees from the company's Seattle headquarters agreeing to participate in the one-day walkout, one worker who plans to walk out told The Seattle Times.
