Sensible, from their perspective anyway. Given that Amazon are doing logistics for the Canadian Government now, testing their employees may be one of their responsibilities.

As a business, if you request employees to put themselves in harms way, you are responsible for their wellbeing / safety.

PERIOD, no excuses Bezos!

So in theory if you wanted a test, you could apply to work at amazon?

This could get interesting/ Given Trumpty’s known dislike of Bezos, we may see any test company likely to help Amazon subjected to that Defense Act thingy and forced to supply the govt instead.

Given his also known disregard of any civic good or humanity, no doubt Trumpty would welcome headlines about deaths of Amazon workers, so he could publicly condemn Bezos for it.

Even though I just made this stuff up, you can’t make this stuff up!
