Amazon

A poll commissioned by general union Unite has found that a majority of the public consider Amazon workers to be “key workers” and should be able to join a union without hindrance.

The Survation poll found people felt that, because of their importance during the health crisis, Amazon workers should now be considered key workers.

Three-quarters felt they should be able to join a union without interference from the company. And a similar number said that the company has a responsibility to provide its indirectly employed “gig economy” workers with fair working conditions.
