Workers at two of the largest
Italian distribution companies working for Amazon are set to
strike ahead of Black Friday protesting "unacceptable work
loads", unions said Tuesday.
Workers at Brandizzo near Turin and Marene near Cuneo say
they will strike for a total of 16 hours starting Wednesday.
The strike was called by the UIL Trasporti transport and
logistics union.
The workers work on distribution lines.
They are also striking to demand greater work safety.
No notice will be given of the start of strikes, unions said.
Amazon said in a statement that the strike would involve
workers at separate firms that deal with order deliveries, and
not workers at Amazon itself.
