New York Sues Amazon over ‘Flagrant Disregard’ for Coronavirus Safety

The State of New York filed a lawsuit against Amazon on Tuesday, alleging that the tech giant showed a “flagrant disregard” for safety in response to the coronavirus pandemic, and that the company retaliated against its employees who complained.

New York attorney general Letitia James filed a lawsuit against Amazon, arguing that the company provided inadequate coronavirus-related safety protection for its employees in New York City, and silenced workers who expressed their concerns over the conditions, according to a report by the New York Times.

“Amazon’s extreme profits and exponential growth rate came at the expense of the lives, health and safety of its frontline workers,” James argued in the the New York supreme court complaint.

The case focuses on two Amazon facilities — a warehouse on Staten Island and a delivery depot in Queens — where the tech giant is accused of failing to properly clean its buildings, as well as failing to conduct adequate contact tracing for known coronavirus cases among its employees.

“We don’t believe the attorney general’s filing presents an accurate picture of Amazon’s industry-leading response to the pandemic,” said Amazon spokesperson Kelly Nantel, adding that the company cares “deeply about the health and safety” of its workers.

The report added that Amazon had preemptively sued James in federal court in an attempt to stop the New York attorney general from bringing the charges against the company. Amazon argues that its workplace safety is a matter of federal, not state law.
