Amazon workers have gone on strike at several facilities across the country in efforts to pressure the retailer into contract talks with their union. This comes as the company is in the crucial final days of the holiday season.
Hundreds of Amazon workers have walked off the job early at seven US facilities across the country. The workers, from cities including New York, Atlanta and San Francisco, are trying to pressure the retailer into a sit-down with their union. The protesters claim unfair pay and treatment from the tech giant.
These demonstrations come as Amazon rushes out packages in the final run-up to Christmas. However, the company says it does not expect an impact on its operations following the strike and saw its shares trading 1.5% higher in premarket hours, a sign that investors share similar views.
Earlier this year, Amazon announced a $2.1 billion investment to raise pay for fulfillment and transportation employees in the U.S, increasing base wages for employees by roughly 7 percent.
The tech giant is the worlds second largest private employer after Walmart and has more than 800,000 people at its U.S. warehouses. Observers say Amazon is unlikely to come to the table to bargain as that could open the door to more union actions.
