SPREAD THE WORD: We are reporting the recent death of a worker at the RDU1 warehouse in Garner, NC.

Eyewitnesses say that the worker suffered what appeared to be a stroke on the 4th floor assembly area shortly after arriving to work on Sunday, March 1, 2026.He collapsed, and his co-workers notified Wellness Staff. They took almost half an hour to arrive, according to a worker who was trying to help the afflicted man.

“He was on the floor.It looked to me like he was dying. I had to leave after fifteen or twenty minutes because Amazon will you charge you time.They still hadn’t come.”

“To me, it was negligence,” he says.
The worker, a 55-year old military veteran and long-time Amazon employee, passed away the next day. Amazon has communicated nothing to RDU1 Associates about their co-worker’s death or explained the slow response time.

Despite repeated union protests, Amazon has no trained nurse or doctor on staff at the giant RDU1 facility of nearly 5,000 workers. The company discourages workers from calling 911, instructing them to notify the building’s Wellness Center and then continue working.

TWO OF OUR CO-WORKERS HAVE DIED.

We at RDU1 are grieving the recent loss of two of our co-workers.  One collapsed on the 4th floor on March 1, 2026.  The managers on duty did not call 911 and it took the Wellness staff more than thirty minutes to arrive. Managers told workers who were trying to help to go back to work. Our co-worker was sent home and died the next day. Warehouse leadership never communicated anything about the death to the rest of the almost 5,000 of us who work at RDU1.

Another of our co-workers died on July 22, 2025.  He passed away in the warehouse. Nothing was communicated to us about this death either.

Both men were well-liked and long-time employees with friends among us. We were not even notified by Amazon about how to attend their memorial services.

Another of our fellow Amazon workers died this year in a Portland warehouse. Workers were told “not to look” – and to “get back to work,” just as we were at RDU1.

RDU1 LEADERSHIP:  KRISTEN TETTMER, SITE LEAD  DEBORAH, Ops Manager MIKE, AREA MANAGER AMBER DANIELS, HR LEAD DELMAR, OPS MANAGER. We have information that each of you knew  the circumstances of these deaths, either present at the March 1 collapse of our co-worker or involvement in managing the aftermath of his death and failing to provide an account of what happened.

We respect the sensitivity of these tragedies and the pain of the families who have lost loved ones.  That’s why we are not publishing the names or identifying details of our fallen co-workers. But the issue of emergency response affects all co-workers. We deserve to know what happened (without the names being published); how Amazon responded; and what you plan to do to protect worker safety in the future.

WE NEED ANSWERS. NOW.

Why did it take Wellness more than half an hour to help our co-worker when he collapsed on the 4th floor on March 1, 2026?

Why didn’t managers call 911?

Why was our co-worker sent home from Wellness to die the next day?
 
How long did it take Wellness to arrive when another co-worker collapsed and died on the floor on July 22, 2025?

#istandwithmamary Ma Mary is CAUSE's beloved co-founder. This past weekend she fearlessly protested Bezos's Ball. She is 72 years old, a three time cancer survivor, a badass union organizer and has worked at Amazon for 7+ years. As many people mentioned, at 72 she deserves to have some much needed rest. Help us make sure she retires from Amazon with diginity and grace! https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-ma-mary (LINK IN BIO)

@amazoncause co-founder and Amazon worker “Ma” Mary Hill has a message for Jeff Bezos on the eve of the #metgala–and as we all know, the best way to deliver a message to a billionaire is to project it onto their $120 million penthouse!

@amazonlaborunion_local1 leader Arlene Kingston and @amazoncause co-founder “Ma” Mary Hill opened the “Ball Without Billionaires” this morning in New York City and they both SLAYED the runway!

The Ball Without Billionaires stands as an alternative to tonight’s Met Gala, where Amazon founder and Executive Chair Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez Bezos are the event’s sponsors and honorary chairs. 🤢🤢🤢

Why a ball without billionaires? Because billionaires don’t make culture. Working people do.

Billionaires like Jeff Bezos have made billions exploiting our work, our planet, our data, and our democracy.

While Jeff is strutting the red carpet at the Met Gala or touring the world in his megayacht, the people who create Amazon’s profits are told to “get back to work” even when a coworker drops dead next to them.

Meanwhile, Amazon is profiting off of the abduction and detainment of our loved ones and neighbors through its contracts with ICE and the Department of Homeland Security.

Amazon is a multi-trillion dollar corporation that’s burrowed its tentacles into the very fabric of our society. Amazon is the concentrated, unaccountable corporate power that we must take down in order to build the world we want, one where our collective humanity is central and respected, and where we own and celebrate our collective creativity, artistry, and culture.

"It's wrong when you can clock in 10-12 hours and clock out and still go home wondering how the rent is going to get paid. Something is wrong when you stand at the pump doing math before you touch the handle or sit in the car in a parking lot trying to stretch one check across lights, food, childcare and healthcare. Something is wrong when survival takes everything you've got and still leaves vou short. That's not how it's supposed to be." - Rev. Ryan Brown, CAUSE Founder, Former Amazon Worker, May Day 2026

A brief recap of our organizing over the past year for International Workers' Day 2026: CAUSE was founded in 2022. Since then, it’s been a journey shaped by struggle and solidarity- hosting cookouts, distributing literature to inform our co-workers of their rights, fighting through a major union election, and securing smaller but meaningful wins through petitions (like getting fans installed at RDU1). Along the way, we’ve built a real sense of community and expanded our efforts across multiple warehouses.

If there’s one thing this year has taught us, it’s simple: Don’t Quit! Organize.

It’s hard to believe, but it’s true: it’s common practice at Amazon warehouses to prevent workers from calling 911 when someone is having a medical emergency.

In its place, Amazon insists that workers call an internal first-aid department, sometimes referred to by Orwellian names like “Amcare” or “Wellness.”

Amazon warehouse workers unionizing with @amazoncause are calling out the company's abuses and union busting – including racist divide and conquer tactics. Despite depending on immigrant labor, Amazon provides direct support for ICE operations and puts their own workers at risk.
