Organisers say nearly 2,000 staff have pledged to participate in the protest.
About 2,000 US staff at Amazon are planning to take part in a one-hour walkout in protest over the internet giant's climate record and its push to bring office staff back to offices.
"Our goal is to change Amazon's cost/benefit analysis on making harmful, unilateral decisions that are having an outsized impact on people of colour, women, LGBTQ people, people with disabilities, and other vulnerable people," they said. The company has ordered office staff to work in the office at least three times per week, starting in May, saying it would improve the firm's communication and culture.Organisers said leaders were exhibiting "day 2 decision-making and taking us in the wrong direction" - a reference to a company catchphrase developed by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who called for "day 1" thinking focused on innovation and long-term goals.
