Amazon.com Inc. workers in Germany went on strike at five logistics centers as the Ver.di union pushes the U.S. online retailer to join collective bargaining agreements.
“Amazon owes its employees such an agreement,” Stefanie Nutzenberger, a Ver.di board member, said in an e-mailed statement. Doing so would be “an effective tool to limit work pressures and help mitigate the considerable impacts on shift workers’ health from working nights and weekends.”
