So Amazon contracts out deliveries to a delivery contractor, who in turn contracts those deliveries to a 2nd contractor, who in turn contracts deliveries out to individual delivery workers. No wonder they only take home less than ¥7,000 a day.
Good on them.
My bf works for UPS and they were threatening to walk out if their demands were met. UPS gave in : better work conditions, better treatment , better pay for drivers and part timers.
