Today, my article about the current crisis tendenies at Amazon after its fulminant pandemic boom was published. Those tendencies could amplify the workers' struggles in the warehouses. It is an open question how Amazon will react. Thanks to @ips_journal https://t.co/hP7IYZBwUb
Ich habe für die @LIZ_de einen zweiteiligen Artikel über die Schließung des Amazon-Airhubs am Leipziger Flughafen geschrieben. Ein griechischer Leiharbeiter berichtet, wie die GI die Kolleg*innen dazu drängte bei DHL Express anzufangen, wo sie Dauernachtschicht arbeiten sollen.

Yesterday started the tour of #Amazon Workers International in Leipzig, Germany. It will visit several facilities in Germany and Poland. We distributed the first edition of The Amazon Worker. You can get it at https://t.co/wrWRyMLPcq in various languages.
Day1: Yesterday we have started our AWI Tour 2023 in 🇩🇪&🇵🇱 in Leipzig. We distributed The Amazon Worker our newspaper. Workers told us the management threatens them to close the well organized warehouse at the moment. They keep #makeamazonpay 🦺🥁🔥Thx to all supporters. ❤️🖤
Day 4. Yesterday, we have visited POZ1 in #Poznan. A wildcat strike in #solidarity with German strikers in 2015 was the beginning of a friendship that has ended in AWI. Many amazing transnational workers meeting have taken place here since then. Dziekujemy. ❤️🖤 #makeamazonpay
Day 5. We tavelled to WRO2 & met @pracownicza workers. The warehouses here are bigger than in 🇩🇪. Approx. 3000 work here & in peak seasons 5000, many tempworkers from 🇺🇦. Many 📦 go to 🇩🇪 but wages are less than 50 % here. We fight for same standards in 🇪🇺. ✊ #makeamazonpay
Wow, was für ein Buch!
1/ Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass jemand die Geschichte der linkssozialistischen, dissident-kommunistischen Bewegung 1900-1950 in D anschaulich erzählen könnte.
Aber Regina Scheer versteht ihre Protagonist*innen politisch und menschlich.
Heute vor einem Jahr am 28.06.2022 haben die mutigen Kolleginnen und Kollegen um @Serdal_90erBj herum den ersten #Amazon AMZL Betriebsrat in einer delivery station bei Amazon DNM1 #Wunstorf gewählt 🥳🚀 #Mitbestimmung#PRIME Am 06.07. wählt die dritte AMZL Station in #Bremerhaven
Special 🙏 @AMrozowicki & Szymon Pilc for the insightful paper on the recent labour struggles in the Polish logistics sector at #Amazon & in Food Delivery and the power resources of unions as @pracownicza. Employers weakens the labour Power by shifting capital to Eastern Europe!
Today, I presented my findings in a inspiring panel on migrant labour in logistics with perspectives from 🇬🇧🇵🇱🇿🇦 @isa_sociology. Let us hope that labour shortages in logistics will increase workers power. 🙏 @LabourRc44#isawcs23

Ein Skandalurteil! Der Richter hat während der Begründung fast nur den Amazon-Anwalt angeschaut. Der Saal war voll mit Unterstüzer*innen. Wir stehen fest an Detlevs Seite! ✊🏽
