> The company’s official policy states that it informs all employees who have come in contact with an infected worker, but Amazon refuses to release official numbers of cases or deaths among its workforce.
Classic shady article writing move: Join two unrelated statements together with a "but" to make them sound related. What's the connection between Amazon not publicly releasing numbers of cases and deaths among its workforce (what other employer does that?) and them informing employees who have been in contact with confirmed cases of the disease?
> He wants to know why the company was planning to stop allowing workers to take unlimited unpaid time off if they’re afraid to go in to work
Again, how many other employer do that?! Certainly not mine.
> asking the company to close the facilities for two weeks after infections for thorough cleaning and send workers home with quarantine pay.
What's the scientific basis for spending 2 weeks decontaminating a whole warehouse because of one infected case when it looks like >80% of infections occur through droplets or aerosols? How would that not result in a massive loss of warehouse capacity given the prevalence of cases and the number of workers in an average one.
And again, nobody else does that either.
