Amazon ends COVID paid leave for U.S. workers
The U.S.-based staff will now get five days of excused, unpaid leave following a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis, Amazon told workers in a message it provided to Reuters. “We can continue to safely adjust to our pre-COVID policies,” the company said, citing the sustained easing of the pandemic, the availability of vaccines and treatments, and updated public health guidance. The changes come amid a stream of challenges for Amazon after a recent effort to unionize some warehouses.
