Amazon UK workers will go on strike today as it also happens to be Black Friday, one of the company's busiest shopping days.
More than 1,000 staff at the firm's Coventry warehouse are expected to take part in the strike, the GMB union said. The reason for the revolt of the employees is a long dispute over their wages and working conditions.
On the other hand, the online retail giant has assured customers that they will not be affected by the workers' strike.
A protest will also be held outside Amazon UK headquarters in London, while coordinated strikes and demonstrations will also be held in other European countries and the US.
Unions say it will be the biggest day of industrial action in Amazon's history.
The company recently announced it would be increasing the minimum starting wage to £13 an hour for staff, depending on location, from next April. But the GMB has called for a wage of at least £15 an hour and better conditions as staff struggle with the crisis of rising living costs. (A2 Televizion)
