Recommendation
In this sad account of a seasonal warehouse worker’s life and death at Amazon, reporter Dave Jamieson exposes one secret to Amazon’s success. He explains how temporary workers toil in warehouses through the holiday season, taking lower wages than permanent staff and collecting minimal benefits. This cautionary tale reveals that seasonal workers live in hope that they will earn permanent positions, when in fact Amazon will fire most of them. getAbstract recommends this article to anyone with an interest in workers’ rights, health and safety, or in how Amazon functions.
