BASINA VE KAMUOYUNA!
Amazon depoda çalışırken @amazon ve @dokgemiis işbirliği ile bilinçli, sistematik mobbing ve baskı yapılarak intihara sürüklenen üyemiz, Mehmet Şahin ile ilgili sendikamızın yaptığı araştırma sonuçlarını kamuoyuyla paylaşıyoruz.
Mehmet Şahin'in katili Amazon çalışma rejimidir!
Kahrolsun sarı sendikacılık!
Mehmet Şahin, our colleague working at Amazon's IST2 warehouse, has taken his own life following the pressure and mobbing he was subjected to inside the warehouse.
“Our colleague Mehmet Şahin was forced to work in departments incompatible with his physical and mental health condition. Despite raising this issue repeatedly, he was met with a "take it or leave it" attitude. This approach triggered pre-existing problems in his life. Choosing not to forgive the managers who exacerbated the situation instead of resolving it, he unfortunately chose to end his life.”
@amazon and the yellow union Dok Gemi İş are responsible for this murder. Our union will follow this process through to the end and will not allow this murder to be forgotten.
We are sharing the statement of Amazon warehouse workers with the publi
Amazon Çalışma Rejimi öldürüyor!
Amazon İST2 deposunda çalışan Mehmet Şahin arkadaşımız depo içerisinde gördüğü baskı ve mobbing sonrası intihar ederek hayatına son vermiştir.
"Mehmet Şahin arkadaşımız, Amazon'da fiziksel ve mental sağlık durumuna uygun olmayan bölümlerde çalışmaya zorlanması ve bunu defalarca dile getirmesine rağmen kendisine "ya bu deveyi güdeceksin, ya bu diyardan gideceksin" mantığıyla yaklaşılması yüzünden zaten hayatında var olan sorunların tetiklenmesi neticesinde, sorunu çözmek yerine kanırtan yöneticilere hakkını helal etmeyerek, maalesef hayatına son vermeyi tercih etmiştir. "
@amazon ve sarı sendika Dok Gemi İş cinayetten sorumludur.Sendikamız sürecin takipçisi olacak, cinayetin unutturulmasına izin vermeyecektir.
Amazon depo işçilerinin açıklamasını kamuoyu ile paylaşıyoruz.
We’re sharing new evidence in our case against Amazon clearly showing the megacorporation is involved in price fixing.
It’s clear as day: Amazon is colluding with vendors and other retailers to make your life more unaffordable.
We’ll see them in court.
Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more.
Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged.
Here's what happened:
Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it."
And the exact emails are now PUBLIC.
Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem.
The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately."
Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call.
Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price.
Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed.
Same playbook with Hanes:
Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased."
Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins.
But it gets even worse...
Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site.
Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing.
They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS.
The mechanism is simple but terrifying:
If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers.
Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings."
Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products.
Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform.
So turns out, you were never comparison shopping.
You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors.
"Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable."
3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on.
This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat.
And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE.
"Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.
Amazon prevents us from calling 911 when someone is having a medical emergency so that the company’s internal first-aid department “AmCare” can cover it up and it’s costing workers their lives.

A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers in the facility were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to The Western Edge.

‼️ Amazon claims it’s “Earth’s best employer.” Then spends $26M fighting workers who want a voice.
You can’t be “the best employer” and anti-worker at the same time.

Amazon pushes workers to the brink.
It has lined up behind Trumpism and its attack on Europe’s data protections.
And for the last five years, it has evaded any democratic scrutiny.
But yesterday, Amazon faced workers, trade unions and MEPs in the European Parliament.
As Amazon announced 16,000 layoffs today, worker representatives and MEPs blasted Amazon management for undermining worker health and democracy at work during a European Parliament hearing on working conditions in its warehouses.

🚨 BREAKING
Amazon workers at the DJT6 warehouse in Riverside, California — one of Amazon's largest facilities in the country — have successfully organized with the Teamsters and are demanding Amazon recognize their union.
Workers began their unionization efforts with the Teamsters earlier this week by staging a midnight walkout during the holiday peak season, when Amazon workers experience increased workloads and more dangerous working conditions.
DJT6 is now the fifth Amazon facility in Southern California to join the Teamsters, along with the KSBD Air Hub in San Bernardino, DFX4 in Victorville, DAX5 in City of Industry, and DAX8 in Palmdale.
Over 200 Amazon drivers in Queens just unionized with the Teamsters.
Amazon is a multi-trillion dollar company, but workers are struggling.
So now they're fighting for dignity, a living wage, and to be treated like human beings, not robots.
WALKOUT🚨🚨Early this morning, Amazon warehouse workers at one of the company’s largest delivery stations in the country, the DJT6 facility in Riverside, CA, walked off the job and publicly announced the start of their unionization campaign as @amazonteamsters / @1932teamsters. A majority workers on the shift walked out.
Amazon workers have already organized with the Teamsters at four other Southern California facilities, including KSBD in San Bernardino, DAX5 in City of Industry, DFX4 in Victorville, and DAX8 in Palmdale. Nationally, nearly 10,000 Amazon workers have mobilized and joined the Teamsters.
Amazon workers keep this company running. For too long has failed as an employer. By standing together, workers at DJT6 and elsewhere are showing we’re ready to fight for the respect and dignity we deserve.
BREAKING: Amazon workers in the Inland Empire of Southern CA have walked off the job. Organizing with @amazonteamsters , they are demanding the company recognize their union. Stay tuned for more coverage!
This morning, Amazon Teamsters and allies rallied in front of the DBK1 facility in Woodside, Queens, demanding that Amazon recognize the more than 200 drivers who unionized with the Teamsters this week. Workers are calling for fair pay, safer working conditions, and for Amazon to follow the law by ending its illegal union-busting and coming to the table to negotiate a strong Teamsters contract.
The Teamsters Union will organize Amazon — and workers will secure the rights, respect, wages, benefits, and job protections they’ve earned.
