Amazon warehouse injury rates

set aside as
EXCLUDED BY ATTRIBUTION
the researcher's note
Amazon warehouse injury rates. Real and regulator-sourced (SOC/OSHA: ~7.8 serious injuries per 100 full-time workers in 2019, roughly double the industry rate), but no source ties them to a system whose decision procedure was fit to data. Quota-setting is described as statistical rate-setting from time studies; that attribution is asserted by advocates, not measured.
