Amazon is cutting the contract effective June 24 and terminating the workers, a Teamsters spokesman said.
in hopes of boosting their wages to $30 hourly by September and securing immediate safety protections.“Amazon is saying they will cut the contract effective June 24 and terminate the workers,” Teamsters spokesman Adan Alvarez said. “I don’t know if they’ll actually do that, but they’re downsizing and have laid off at least 20 workers.”
“This company has a history of underperformance and not providing a safe environment, and was notified that Amazon was ending their contract before the Teamsters got involved to try and re-write the facts,” Hards said.Alvarez said the workers hope to stay on and secure safety concessions similar to those included in a labor agreement recently inked between UPS and its Teamster-represented drivers.
“I feel we’re all underpaid,” he said. “I do this so I can feed my family, but we often have to juggle our bills to get by and fill our fridge. We’re working paycheck to paycheck.”Singh said the summer months are especially hard when temperatures in the Antelope Valley often top 100 degrees.
