The lawsuit … involves two Amazon facilities in New York City that employ more than 5,000 workers. It alleges that Amazon failed to disinfect those facilities when infected workers had been present; didn’t contact workers when they were exposed to the virus; and made employees work so much that they didn’t have time to disinfect their workstations or stay socially distant. ‘While Amazon and its CEO made billions during this crisis, hardworking employees were forced to endure unsafe conditions,’ said New York Attorney General Letitia James, who filed the lawsuit.
