To make sure you’re getting a good price for an item, you can use price comparison websites like \u003ca href=\"https://camelcamelcamel.com/\">Camelcamelcamel\u003c/a> to see how an item’s price has changed over time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some items are also cheaper at other times of the year.

Like Prime Day, Walmart’s and Target’s sales also require membership in their rewards programs — Walmart+ and Target Circle, respectively. Like Amazon Prime, Walmart+ offers a 30-day free trial and then costs $98 a year. Target Circle is free to join.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. Avoid impulse buying.

Like, can we really trust that their quotas are safe enough?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Studies have shown that workers at Amazon, the largest warehouse employer nationwide, face more dangerous conditions than other companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2023, Amazon employed 35% of all U.S. warehouse workers but was responsible for 53% of all serious injuries in the industry, according to an \u003ca href=\"https://thesoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/SOC_Same-Day-Injury-Report-May-2024.pdf\">analysis\u003c/a> by the Strategic Organizing Center.

The agency assessed penalties against the company in May for $4.7 million and $1.2 million for the two warehouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amazon has appealed the proposed penalties and is awaiting a hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The truth is, we don’t have fixed quotas. At Amazon, individual performance is evaluated over a long period of time in relation to how the entire site’s team is performing,” Amazon spokesperson Maureen Lynch Vogel said in a statement. “Employees can — and are encouraged to — review their performance whenever they wish. They can always talk to a manager if they’re having trouble finding the information.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>García-Brower countered that Amazon’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/workplace/amazon-fulfillment-centers-employee-safety-well-being\">peer-to-peer evaluation\u003c/a> system is “exactly the kind of system that the warehouse quotas law was put in place to prevent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2021, then-CEO Jeff Bezos announced Amazon would try to become the “\u003ca href=\"https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/operations/update-on-our-vision-to-be-earths-best-employer-and-earths-safest-place-to-work\">Earth’s Safest Place to Work\u003c/a>.” The latest California citations, however, signal the company is falling short of its goal, Mindy Acevedo, an attorney with the Warehouse Worker Resource Center, told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They keep pushing for faster and faster delivery windows, and they have not actually addressed what’s causing such high injury rates,” said Acevedo, who helped workers alert state authorities about quota concerns. “If they’re not complying with just the notices, then what does that say about their compliance with the rest of the law? Like, can we really trust that their quotas are safe enough?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Studies have shown that workers at Amazon, the largest warehouse employer nationwide, face more dangerous conditions than other companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2023, Amazon employed 35% of all U.S. warehouse workers but was responsible for 53% of all serious injuries in the industry, according to an \u003ca href=\"https://thesoc.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/SOC_Same-Day-Injury-Report-May-2024.pdf\">analysis\u003c/a> by the Strategic Organizing Center. The union-backed center found that injury levels spiked during the company’s busiest periods, such as Prime Day and the holiday shopping season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the press conference on Tuesday, Amazon employees said they worked in fear of losing their jobs if they didn’t move fast enough but were often unaware of what production targets they were expected to meet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are humans. Our safety is important to us. But they treat us like one of their robots,” said Nannette Plascencia, 46, who works at the Moreno Valley facility moving large amounts of freight. “These citations give me hope that it is possible to hold Amazon accountable to the people who make their corporation so successful.\u003cem>”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11990881/california-fines-amazon-nearly-6-million-for-breaking-warehouse-worker-safety-rules","authors":["8659"],"categories":["news_8"],"tags":["news_1611","news_1549","news_18538","news_27626","news_18180","news_19904","news_21308","news_5556","news_3733","news_23063"],"featImg":"news_11990912","label":"news"},"news_11980101":{"type":"posts","id":"news_11980101","meta":{"index":"posts_1716263798","site":"news","id":"11980101","score":null,"sort":[1710968407000]},"parent":0,"labelTerm":{"site":"news"},"blocks":[],"publishDate":1710968407,"format":"standard","title":"Billionaire Philanthropist Mackenzie Scott Donates $57 Million to Bay Area Nonprofits","headTitle":"Billionaire Philanthropist Mackenzie Scott Donates $57 Million to Bay Area Nonprofits | KQED","content":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left\">Billionaire philanthropist and author MacKenzie Scott is giving $640 million to 361 small nonprofits — \u003ca href=\"https://yieldgiving.com/gifts/?essay=20240319&locations=us_west_ca_alameda,us_west_ca_alameda_county,us_west_ca_contra_costa,us_west_ca_contra_costa_county,us_west_ca_marin_county,us_west_ca_oakland,us_west_ca_richmond,us_west_ca_san_francisco,us_west_ca_san_francisco_bay_area,us_west_ca_san_francisco_county,us_west_ca_san_jose,us_west_ca_san_jose_county,us_west_ca_san_mateo,us_west_ca_san_mateo_county,us_west_ca_san_rafael,us_west_ca_santa_clara_county,us_west_ca_sonoma_county\">including some $57 million to over 30 Bay Area groups \u003c/a>— that responded to an open call for applications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott’s foundation, Yield Giving, announced its first round of donations on Tuesday.

That, in turn, harms the ability of other retailers to compete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have chosen this defendant on this issue because of the strength of the case that we have, and its impact is incredibly far-reaching and wide-ranging and has massive potential benefit for millions of Californians,\" said Bonta during a press conference. \"If you think about the number of individuals who use the Amazon platform each day and you multiply that by the number of days in a year and 10 years, the scope and scale of this case is enormous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta said that while his office has had some discussions with representatives of Amazon leading up to today, they have not taken an official deposition of an executive at this point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So we’ll see what a court determines is appropriate for disclosure,\" said Bonta. \"But between the actual contracts that Amazon has had with vendors and sellers over the last decade to the direct statements about the impact of those contracts from vendors and sellers, we feel that the evidence in total is damning and telling and supports the claims that we’ve made in the complaint.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit maintains merchants that do not comply with the policy could have their products stripped from prominent listings on Amazon and face other sanctions such as suspensions or terminations of their accounts. It alleges Amazon's policy essentially forces merchants to list higher prices on other sites, helping it maintain its e-commerce dominance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other things, the California lawsuit seeks to stop Amazon from entering into contracts with sellers that harm price competition. It also seeks a court order to compel Amazon to pay damages to the state for increased prices. State officials did not say how much money they are seeking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company has said in the past that sellers set their own prices on the platform. It has also said it has the right to avoid highlighting products that are not priced competitively. In a statement sent Wednesday, Amazon reiterated those points and said Bonta has it \"exactly backwards.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The relief the AG seeks would force Amazon to feature higher prices to customers, oddly going against core objectives of antitrust law,\" the company said. \"We hope that the California court will reach the same conclusion as the D.C. court and dismiss this lawsuit promptly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amazon controls roughly 38% of online sales in the U.S., more than Walmart, eBay, Apple, Best Buy and Target combined, according to the research firm Insider Intelligence. About 2 million sellers list their products on Amazon's third-party marketplace, accounting for 58% of the company's retail sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a news conference on Wednesday, Bonta said some vendors have expressed they would offer lower prices on other sites with lower seller fees, but don't do so to avoid punishment from Amazon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Amazon has stifled its competition for years, not by successfully competing, but by blocking competition on price,\" Bonta said. \"As a result, California families paid more, and now Amazon must pay the price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the lawsuit is also a message to other companies who \"illegally bend the market at the expense of California consumers, small-business owners and the economy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tech industry's allies also slammed the lawsuit. Adam Kovacevich, CEO of the industry trade group Chamber of Progress, which receives funding from Amazon and other tech companies, said the case would force Amazon to raise prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That makes no sense while consumers shop for bargains to counter inflation, and it's based on a legally unsound theory already rejected by federal courts,\" Kovacevich said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite that defense, Amazon's market power has been a subject of scrutiny from lawmakers and advocacy groups calling for stricter antitrust regulations. Earlier this year, congressional lawmakers urged the Justice Department to investigate whether the company collects data on sellers to develop competing products and offer them more prominently on its site.

That, in turn, harms the ability of other retailers to compete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have chosen this defendant on this issue because of the strength of the case that we have, and its impact is incredibly far-reaching and wide-ranging and has massive potential benefit for millions of Californians,\" said Bonta during a press conference. \"If you think about the number of individuals who use the Amazon platform each day and you multiply that by the number of days in a year and 10 years, the scope and scale of this case is enormous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta said that while his office has had some discussions with representatives of Amazon leading up to today, they have not taken an official deposition of an executive at this point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So we’ll see what a court determines is appropriate for disclosure,\" said Bonta. \"But between the actual contracts that Amazon has had with vendors and sellers over the last decade to the direct statements about the impact of those contracts from vendors and sellers, we feel that the evidence in total is damning and telling and supports the claims that we’ve made in the complaint.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit maintains merchants that do not comply with the policy could have their products stripped from prominent listings on Amazon and face other sanctions such as suspensions or terminations of their accounts. It alleges Amazon's policy essentially forces merchants to list higher prices on other sites, helping it maintain its e-commerce dominance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other things, the California lawsuit seeks to stop Amazon from entering into contracts with sellers that harm price competition. It also seeks a court order to compel Amazon to pay damages to the state for increased prices. State officials did not say how much money they are seeking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company has said in the past that sellers set their own prices on the platform. It has also said it has the right to avoid highlighting products that are not priced competitively. In a statement sent Wednesday, Amazon reiterated those points and said Bonta has it \"exactly backwards.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The relief the AG seeks would force Amazon to feature higher prices to customers, oddly going against core objectives of antitrust law,\" the company said. \"We hope that the California court will reach the same conclusion as the D.C. court and dismiss this lawsuit promptly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amazon controls roughly 38% of online sales in the U.S., more than Walmart, eBay, Apple, Best Buy and Target combined, according to the research firm Insider Intelligence. About 2 million sellers list their products on Amazon's third-party marketplace, accounting for 58% of the company's retail sales.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a news conference on Wednesday, Bonta said some vendors have expressed they would offer lower prices on other sites with lower seller fees, but don't do so to avoid punishment from Amazon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Amazon has stifled its competition for years, not by successfully competing, but by blocking competition on price,\" Bonta said. \"As a result, California families paid more, and now Amazon must pay the price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the lawsuit is also a message to other companies who \"illegally bend the market at the expense of California consumers, small-business owners and the economy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tech industry's allies also slammed the lawsuit. Adam Kovacevich, CEO of the industry trade group Chamber of Progress, which receives funding from Amazon and other tech companies, said the case would force Amazon to raise prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That makes no sense while consumers shop for bargains to counter inflation, and it's based on a legally unsound theory already rejected by federal courts,\" Kovacevich said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite that defense, Amazon's market power has been a subject of scrutiny from lawmakers and advocacy groups calling for stricter antitrust regulations. Earlier this year, congressional lawmakers urged the Justice Department to investigate whether the company collects data on sellers to develop competing products and offer them more prominently on its site. Critics also have lambasted the increasing fees imposed on sellers, which make it more difficult for merchants to enter the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers on Capitol Hill have been pushing bipartisan legislation aiming to limit Amazon and other Big Tech companies, including Apple, Meta and Google, from favoring their own products and services over rivals.
