Tlaib and Dingell had raised questions before about safety practices at Amazon facilities, which a company spokesperson said Friday, were answered and issues were fixed. One of those employees was Mario Crippen, who left the facility in April out of fear he would get sick. In a set of statements a company spokesperson called those claims “simply not true.”“Safety is our top priority and we are committed to ensuring a clean and safe workplace. We’ve also distributed personal protective gear like masks across our entire operations network,” Amazon spokesperson Timothy Carter said.
