Amazon is subject to a $60k fine for unsafe warehouse working conditions

<p>Amazon warehouses in Florida, Illinois and New York violated federal regulations. Workers are at risk for back injuries and other musculoskeletal disorders. Amazon must pay a $60,269 fine for the violations at warehouses in Deltona, Florida and Waukegan, Illinois. The company denies OSHA&#39;s claims that its facilities are too expensive, difficult to access and that Amazon&#39;s on-site clinics called Amcare can be prohibitive to workers receiving adequate medical care.</p>
