AMAZON WORKERS AT DJT6 FACILITY IN RIVERSIDE JOIN TEAMSTERS

Earlier this week, Amazon warehouse workers at the DJT6 facility in Riverside organized with Teamsters Local 1932 after a midnight walkout during the holiday peak season at one of the company’s largest delivery stations.
Facing intense holiday workloads, DJT6 warehouse workers demand industry-standard minimum pay, health care and safer working conditions as Amazon allegedly ignores injuries and threatens injured employees' jobs.
Union and worker statements emphasized the midnight walkout's courage, with Randy Korgan, Director of the Teamsters Amazon Division and Secretary-Treasurer of Local 1932, saying DJT6 workers have long faced mistreatment.
The move makes DJT6 the latest site to join a campaign that already includes over 200 drivers in Queens and Amazon CDL drivers in Shepherdsville, Kentucky.
Representing over 1.3 million members, the Teamsters framed the action as collective leverage, emphasizing `we will force Amazon to listen to us together as Teamsters` to strengthen negotiations.
