Amazon was fined $5.9 million for allegedly not providing workers at its Moreno Valley and Redlands warehouses with written work quotas.

Leticia JuarezAmazon promises its U.S. Prime members access to thousands of products delivered to them either the same or the following day. However, some employees say that speed comes at a cost to them.

The California Department of Industrial Relations says it sent letters to warehouse employers letting them know of the new law, which went into effect in 2022. The department says it conducted 650 compliance visits thought the state. "So almost half of the workers have unfortunately been exposed to unsafe working conditions in the violations of AB701," said Garcia-Brower.
