The increasing use of e-commerce to distribute goods has led to a massive increase in the numbers of people working in distribution warehouses and as delivery drivers. These workers often endure terrible working conditions. But many are organizing to fight for decent work and fair pay. From the Amazon union drives to the victories by warehouse workers at HBC and Keuhne+Nagle, warehouse workers are finding their collective power.

 

Join us for this forum to discuss the campaigns and how we can help beat the bosses and support workers power.
