Lets see what Amazon currently pay in the UK in their fulfillment centers:
- Day Shift: £9.70 to £10.80 per hour (dependent on location)
- Night Shift: £11.21 to £12.76 per hour
- Overtime: £14.55 per hour up to £21.60 per hour
Those are above average for non skilled work in the UK, the overtime is pretty good.
Some skilled jobs don't even pay £21.6 per hour overtime, many skilled office jobs you are expected to sometimes work a bit extra for no extra compensation.
No one working full time on the above basic pay should need to use a food bank, if they do it is not because of Amazon but because of poor life choices. Like taking on too much debt because they want to live like they earn £100K+ a year. They end up drowning in interest payments and cant afford to eat.
And if anyone cant afford to eat because decent housing is so expensive then blame the Central Banks and Governments for pushing up house prices and rents and general inflation with zero interest rates.
