Amazon employees at a Colorado fulfillment centre claim they were told to “walk over a dead body” after a co-worker suffered a fatal heart attack.
On 27 December, Rick Jacobs, 61, was about to head home after working overnight at the DEN4 warehouse in Colorado Springs when he collapsed to the floor and died.
Plant managers allegedly then cordoned off his body using cardboard boxes while staffers arriving for their morning shift were forced to continue working just feet away.
Amazon, whose founder is billionaire Jeff Bezos, made employees “literally walk over a dead body to make you more money,” an anonymous staffer at the facility muttered on Reddit.
