I wouldn't trust a study like this unless it comes out of a university, or a government agency like OSHA.

The unions just lost a major fight to try and get into Amazon's warehouses, they have every interest in disparaging Amazon.

"Our findings are based on data that Amazon and other employers provided to OSHA annually from 2017 to 2020 within the General Warehouse and Storage industry (NAICS: 493110) and the last mile delivery industries (NAICS 492110 & 492210). ... All employers are legally required to submit annual injury and illness reports to OSHA for any warehouse, delivery, grocery, or wholesale trade facility with 20 or more employees annually, so these records should include every significantly-sized facility in Amazon’s US logistics network."
