MORE than half of Amazon workers are forced to borrow money to subsidise their low pay, a report by GMB reveals today.
The study forms part of the union’s formal pay claim to the multinational, calling on Amazon to deliver a £17 minimum wage for staff in Britain.
The survey of hundreds of Amazon workers found low pay was causing 15 per cent of Amazon workers in Britain to use foodbanks.
