Employee Activism Increases at Amazon
The tech industry has largely been regarded as the new frontier of the labor movement. Recently, there have been significant increases of employee based activism at Amazon. The group that organized the Amazon climate walkout, Amazon Employees for Climate Justice, is planning a rally on Saturday, October 17, calling on the company to give employees a day off to vote. At the planned Saturday rally, workers intend to gather at Amazon’s Seattle headquarters campus and march to an Amazon-owned Whole Foods Market, then go by car to an Amazon distribution center.
