So while the BBC went for the sensationalist angle, from the article, Amazon is paying for travel travel for any healthcare, which seems reasonable especially when their warehouses are frequently remote.
The headline has pulled out abortion specifically for the clicks, all that's happening is Amazon isn't making its employee's healthcare choices for them.

Abortion is a kind of healthcare which is illegal to provide in some places. If Amazon commits itself to defying those laws, that's a very big deal.
