Amazon workers strike at four locations in Germany
Amazon employees are currently on strike at four different locations in Germany. Employees are attempting to achieve a collective bargaining agreement that will include higher wages and better conditions. Management at Amazon argues that employees earn wages that are higher than the industry average. Additionally, management argues that the firm is not part of the retail and mail order industry, but the logistics industry. Strikes will last until Thursday in some locations, and deliveries will most likely not be affected.
