It’s outrageous that Amazon would rather fire workers coming forward than fix the conditions they’re blowing the whistle on. Amazon needs to stop retaliating and start making sure employees are safe, working in sanitary conditions with proper protections. https://t.co/Qo2Cw5CZQs

They say Amazon retaliated against them. “They were targeting the most visible leaders in an attempt to silence everyone” https://t.co/MKNMO5riMa
Amazon fired more workers after they called for better safety measures during the pandemic: two tech workers who also led the climate justice group, and a Minnesota warehouse worker https://t.co/enzQiZJ5pq https://t.co/4pikBLaewR

it sure seems like Amazon's strategy is to have all warehouse employees violate social distancing, which gives them plausible cause to fire any one of them should they speak out https://t.co/MoNdEUSYBd pic.twitter.com/vaxFaPf8D6

Amazon told the fired worker that he was terminated because he refused to speak to his supervisor. He did not deny that allegation, although he accused his supervisor of treating him unfairly. https://t.co/LUeg40MiKQ pic.twitter.com/0t6ZyvorIO

The fired worker said that he had begun pushing for more rigorous cleaning and other measures to protect against the transmission of the coronavirus https://t.co/LUeg40MiKQ

A second employee said he believed Amazon was targeting workers involved with walkouts and slowdowns, in some cases by selectively reprimanding them for failing to comply with social distancing protocols https://t.co/LUeg40MiKQ

The richest man in the world has fired Amazon tech workers who used their relative privilege to stand up for the health and safety of more vulnerable warehouse workers. In other words, he fired them for doing what we should all be doing right now. It is truly monstrous. https://t.co/5jp7RnwxLq
