Jeff Bezos subjected housekeepers to 'unsafe and unsanitary' conditions, barring them from rest breaks and easy access to bathrooms, according to a lawsuit filed in Seattle this week.
founder Jeff Bezos subjected housekeepers to"unsafe and unsanitary" conditions, barring them from rest breaks and easy access to bathrooms, according to a lawsuit filed in Seattle this week.
"Employers discriminated against Plaintiff because of her race, forced Plaintiff to work long hours without rest or meal breaks, exposed Plaintiff to unsafe and unsanitary work conditions, retaliated against and wrongfully terminated Plaintiff’s employment," according to the lawsuit filed by Wedaa's attorney Patrick McGuigan.
In addition to extended work shifts that went as long as 14 hours with no breaks, there was"no reasonably accessible bathroom for the housekeepers," the lawsuit said. The lawsuit later claimed that housekeepers"frequently developed Urinary Tract Infections " due to not having easy access to restrooms.
Wedaa did not name a dollar amount she's seeking in the lawsuit, though Korrell said the housekeeper asked for a $9 million settlement in lieu of filing this lawsuit.
