'I don't want to be there but I need the income': Worried Amazon workers say the company's sick leave policy is failing to protect them

website states: "For a COVID-19 event, you will need a note from your healthcare provider, a government health official, or directly from Amazon stating that you are unable to work for five or more consecutive days due to a COVID-19 diagnosis or exposure. Grants cannot be made without the required documentation."

One employee showed Business Insider emails they received from HR after taking a week of unpaid time off, serving her with a "job abandonment notice." In an attempt to incentivize people to work, Amazon introduced a wage increase of $2 per hour during April. This does not apply for workers taking paid sick leave, an Amazon spokeswoman confirmed to Business Insider. The company also announced in late March that it isfor employees who work more than 40 hours per week to double their usual rate, so there is more incentive to come in.

"I can't continue to put people that I love at risk [...] I am feeling like I'm forced to make a decision whether I have to go to work or pay my bills," they said. "I'm kind of like hoping that somehow, because this has never happened before, that they come up with some kind of solution."
