"The warehouse workers who have helped sustain us during unprecedented times should not have to risk injury or face punishment as a result of exploitative quotas that violate basic health and safety", Newsom said. Amazon has not yet commented on the measure but pointed out that the company places productivity targets for individual employees on their performance rather than their time. The company also added that less than 15 employees were fired due to underperformance. Many business groups strongly oppose the bills as they think it could lead to an explosion of litigation and hamper the distribution of goods.
