Hacker News new | ask | show | jobs

I think this is one of the most misleading articles I have seen on the front page of hacker news. First of all, being on OSHA's "dirty dozen" does not imply you are one of the most dangerous workplaces. And the report this article is based on cited 6 deaths in the past year - 3 from an airplane accident, 1 from construction, and 2 when a warehouse wall collapsed. 6 deaths in a year is very few at Amazon scale, especially when they are counting people who aren't actually employed by Amazon directly. And I don't think any of those deaths, except maybe the last two, can be attributed to Amazon.

It's not even OSHA's list it's just a nonprofit with a name that is strikingly similar to ones run by the government.
