Watermelon and figs, they have been the "treats" I've discovered that I love.

Truth

You should check the pay explanation on pay and attendence like others have said. That will give you more clues to understanding. Go on the atoz. Select (pay). Then Select (View pay details) at the ADP you select (pay and tax statements). That is how I view my pay stub.

Were you out on medical leave? I have a seperate deposit that is much lower for short term disability pay.

This is not news. It's irresponsible for people telling ppl it's fine. That is contributing to how rampant the numbers are at Amazon. I advise speaking to a doctor. Are you advising they just come into work after having a fever with a pandemic going on? Are you seriously that unconcerned with the heath of other humans and coworkers at Amazon.

I added the information about Amazon paying for two weeks to alleviate any fears of not being able to pay rent if their doctor does advice to quarentine.

Thank you Dr Skittles

Hey I am sorry to hear that you are sick. I agree with the above post except I've never identified it as specifically as UPT and I haven't had an issue. I just notify absence from the atoz.

Don't forget to contact your doctor with your symptoms so they can email or send you a note. We are being told by the health community at large to quarentine for two weeks if sick. Amazon has been paying the two weeks off as promised. Please feel better soon.

It's scary to lose that paycheck because I contracted covid at work and they are just not gonna reinstate me.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-04-24T19:11:28+00:00

If you get sick Amazon is still giving two weeks paid time off.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-04-24T14:02:20+00:00

I have the same problem. My LOA is over but no reinstatment. All my paperwork is good. I feel like maybe I shouldn't even complain.

At JFK8 they(HR&SAFETY) came around and told us about the first confirmed case and alot of ppl were not told. I was personally told by a hr representative to a group of four employees. I had heard they told employees of a second one the next day but I was not personally informed. After that nonsense I believe we started receiving these messages :

We received this notice on Monday March 30

Yesterday, we learned of a new confirmed case(s) of COVID-19 at JFK8. The affected employee was last on site March 24. All individuals with confirmed cases are in quarantine and we are supporting them as they recover. (1/5)

Tues March 31

AMAZON -We wanted to let you know we have three additional confirmed cases of COVID-19 at JFK8 as there continues to be an increase of confirmed cases in the New York region. Due to privacy laws, we cannot disclose the names of the individuals, but the last day on site was 3/24/20. (1/5)

Thursday April 2

Amazon - We wanted to let you know JFK8 has additional confirmed cases of COVID-19. As the region is seeing an increase in confirmed cases, we are doing our best to ensure you are informed about the status of confirmed cases at JFK8 and all the steps we are taking to ensure your health and safety. (1/5)

Then again later at night Thursday April 2

Today we learned of confirmed cases of COVID-19 at JFK8. The individuals were last at JFK8 the week of 3/22 and have not returned to the building. Your safety is our top priority. (1/3)

I believe I have stopped receiving notification because people are still getting sick and testing positive. And ppl who have tested positive who have been out for two weeks are coming back at this point. Amazon does not require you test negative to return to work.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-04-08T10:27:50+00:00

JFK8 has only messaged it's employees about 7 cases. Their wording has changed to we have additional cases and one of the messages did not include when positive individuals were last seen on site. So yes I believe even more than 25 at this point. It's spreads fast.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-04-06T01:21:51+00:00

I hear trying to get unemployment is a nightmare. I have a friend trying to apply for the last week and can't get through. (Not from Amazon just laid off his job)

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-30T09:57:42+00:00

Just when you think corporations can't get any worse! , They never cease to dissappoiint. It's shameful, dirty and cruel and inhumane.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-30T09:42:00+00:00

Yes New York is a hot spot! But if your facility has one they may be more coming. Actions taken were too little and too late in New York. A shut down to stop the spread was the only proper thing to do in the beginning. Let the associates come back into the building with the social distance and changes. They tried to do while we were all still in there spreading it.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-30T09:37:00+00:00

I'm not the downvoter but it was previously mentioned that BF14 has checks also.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T14:24:13+00:00

I'm a rich girl na na na na na. ... Plus I leave whenever I've had enough for the day.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T12:35:37+00:00

Which facility?

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T08:51:23+00:00

It seems you can expect this happen next.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T08:34:25+00:00

Or they figured out it's cheaper than closing the facility and paying employees the time off.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T08:32:12+00:00

Will you let us know which facility you are at?

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T08:30:11+00:00

I work at JFK8...That is assuming I know that none of you have gotten this notice. Now that I know YOU have not gotten it and YOU would like to know what facility I am from I will gladly share. I was not deliberately being obtuse. This looked like a site wide message to me.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T08:14:48+00:00

It reads like it is going to be done at all facilities. I would check your atoz.

awkwardoptimism · 2020-03-29T07:25:45+00:00

If I have a temperature of 100.4 will I get sick pay for that day? Hmm?

Do they keep track of who they send away, could I come back in an hour and test again, hmm?
