I used to work in a steel mill - a VERY dangerous environment. We’d see a couple of ambulances a year, maybe. And it would be a big deal and lead to process changes. Almost one a day is INSANE!

[@jackcoleman1784]

I think what the difference is (and what you're alluding to is) is that the dangerous nature of steel mills is unfortunately to an extent intrinsic to the nature of the work. It's always going to be dangerous to a certain degree which is why steel workers are very dedicated to workplace safety as well as looking out for one another. Amazons work is only dangerous because Amazon makes it dangerous by refusing to spend the money to make it a safe workplace. And what's worse is that they're so scared of unions that they actively work to divide their workforce in terms of morale which makes it very hard to have that same level of concern and looking out for each other that steel workers have. There's just no justifiable reason a warehouse job should be more dangerous than steel work. Ever.

She’s the head of HR. If I look on their system she’s there.

[@brunopetit9538]

That lady is your typical corporate drone who is happy to do what she has done and no doubt very well remunerated for doing so. I am not sure how people like that can sleep at night. I suspect she will be an HR bod as they are all corporate glove puppets in my experience. Could not do their job for any money whatsoever. Then again I have some self respect!

I was a Christmas temp picking items. The scanners we used ran out of charge, affecting performance. We had a short time (seconds) in which to pick items. If you were at the top of a four- storey tower and your next pick was on the ground floor at the opposite end of the vast warehouse, your performance was badly affected. I was knackered at the end of my eight hour shift. How even more knackering must it be to have to endure a ten hour shift!

Interesting how the justification for not having trade unions is exactly the same as the 19th century ones I read in school. The laughable idea that large businesses should only have to negotiate with individual workers, not a group of them. Good for the business, bad for the individual, just like they like it.

I guarantee that these surveys they do are not anonymous or outsourced for anonymity.

The government can force people to apply for their jobs or have their benefits stopped for breach of the Claimant Commitment. It's all part of the corporate coercion.

Because every logical person knows that if a business makes 280 ambulance calls per year they must be a top notch safety leader... (s) And this doesn't even count the incidents they didn't call for, like the man who's nearly blind now. It's kinda nice to know they spread lies and BS in the UK too, it's not only us.

The fact that most of those ambulance calls are not work related injuries but preexisting conditions, really means they’re forcing people to go to work with health problems until those conditions become so bad that they can’t even drive themselves to the doctor or hospital but have to call an ambulance.
