Amazon is reportedly planning to eliminate up to 5,000 contract positions across the United States. This potential reduction is primarily linked to a proposed legislative measure in New York City. The Delivery Protection Act, if enacted, would mandate Amazon to directly employ its contracted delivery personnel. This could also lead to the closure of 15 warehouses in the city. The company has expressed concerns that the legislation will increase delivery costs and times.
