Amazon has decreed that any of its warehouse workers who refuse to accept the vaccine will also forfeit the right to paid time off should they ever be infected with the virus – even though being vaccinated has little impact on the transmission of the virus, as the omicron wave clearly demonstrated to millions of American workers.
The e-commerce giant has decided to allow workers in its “fulfillment centers” to finally go mask-less inside its giant warehouses, which by all accounts are stuffy, hostile work environments – but only as long as they are vaccinated. The company is changing its policy in response to the governors of at least 12 states lifting their own respective masking requirements.
Amazon’s policy change was first reported by WSJ:
“There has been a sharp decline in Covid-19 cases across the country over the past weeks. Along with increasing vaccination rates across the country, this is a positive sign we can return to the path to normal operations,” Amazonâs memo says.
Where the heck are the HR attorneys . This seems like a slam dunk case against Amazon . Substitute the word un vaxxx d with female , Asian, Black, handicapped, short tall, young or old.
Hmm then what?
