Amazon’s Staten Island warehouse on Monday was hit with its second labor protest since the coronavirus outbreak began.

The labor groups involved in organizing the protest claimed that up to 50 Amazon workers gathered outside the Bloomfield distribution center, called JFK8, to protest the company’s handling of the virus amid complaints that 25 people there have tested positive for the deadly illness. Amazon disputed the numbers.

The noon rally lasted about an hour, according to the labor groups.

Amazon does not provide unpaid time off for hourly workers who feel symptoms or may have sick people at home.

It’s the second time the SI warehouse staffers have protested Amazon’s handling of the coronavirus. On March 30, dozens of employees held a rally spearheaded by management assistant Christopher Smalls — who was later fired by Amazon.

At the time, fewer than 10 warehouse workers reportedly had the virus, but the number has since increased to more than 25, according to Jason Schwartz, a spokesman for Athena, one of the worker advocacy groups involved in the strike.

“Workers are asking for a cohesive plan that protects them and the health of the public,” according to the advisory.

“Of the more than 5,000 employees at our Staten Island fulfillment center, less than 10 people participated in today’s demonstration – half of whom were not Amazon employees,” Amazon said in a statement.

“Like all businesses grappling with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, we are working hard to keep employees safe while serving communities and the most vulnerable,” Amazon spokeswoman Rachael Lighty said. “We have taken extreme measures to keep people safe, tripling down on deep cleaning, procuring safety supplies that are available and changing processes to ensure those in our buildings are keeping safe distances.”

Amazon is taking employees’ temperature at its warehouses and sending home anyone with a temperature of 100F or more, it has said in a blog post.

Amazon warehouse workers in Chicago and Detroit also held rallies and work stoppages in recent weeks over COVID-19 safety concerns.

In NYC, some 40 elected officials, including Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, Comptroller Scott Stringer and City Council Speaker Corey Johnson, fired off a letter to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos on April 1, calling for Smalls’ rehiring and for Amazon to implement COVID-19 safety protocols and paid leave.

“We write in support of your own workers calling for you to CLOSE Amazon warehouses until you put into place real solutions — with independent monitors — to protect your workers and the public in this moment of public health crisis,” according to the letter.

The tech giant has previously said it fired Smalls because he violated social distancing guidelines after coming into contact with an employee who tested positive for the virus.

Smalls was the subject of a leaked Amazon memo last week, in which company general counsel David Zapolsky wrote that the assistant manager is “not smart, or articulate, and to the extent the press wants to focus on us versus him, we will be in a much stronger PR position,” according to reports.
