Jun 18, 2024, 08:34 PM

Amazon has been fined nearly $6 million by California regulators for failing to provide written work quotas to employees at two warehouses in Southern California. The citations allege that Amazon violated the Warehouse Quotas law 59,017 times during a five-month investigation period. The fine is part of a broader effort by California to enforce labor laws and protect warehouse workers from abusive work speed requirements and ensure worker safety rules. Amazon has responded by stating that they do not have a quota system in place.
