The workers’ complaints come at a time when Amazon warehouse workers across the world have alleged that they are overworked, underpaid, and mistreated.

And the same week that these Amazon employees in Chicago say that the company failed to pay them for overtime, Amazon fulfillment center workers in Minnesota went on strike on Prime Day to demand the company lower productivity quotes, employ more full-time employees rather than temporary workers, and better address on-the-job injuries.
