READING:

COVID-19 is no longer a health emergency. However, many workers are still working from home. Amazon has told its staff to return to a five-day week from January. It said: "We're going to return to being in the office the way we were before Covid." It said staff could teach and learn from one another in the office.

Amazon staff often talk about their concerns. In February 2023, Amazon asked people to be in the office for three days a week, and the workers protested. They also complained about Amazon cutting 27,000 jobs. Another complaint was about climate change. Amazon has made a "bureaucracy mailbox" for staff complaints.
