You have every right not to shop there. Employees also have every right not to work there. As you will see stated here time and time again, private businesses can run their operations any way they wish as long as they are not discriminating against legally protected classes.

And yet, we have a minimum wage, maximum hours allowed to work, accident insurance, mandated sick days, mandated vacation days and other things.

If we did not mandate them by law, people could "choose" not to work at places that did not offer the above. However, that choice would probably entail "not having a job at all" which tends to be rather shitty.

My point being "it is voluntary" is not a reasonable excuse for treating lower class workers inhumanely.

That should be followed by a long discussion of what counts as "inhumane treatment". Where there is much room for disagreement still. But I don't think it is defensible to claim "they could quit" when someone else says "these conditions are inhumane and should be stopped".

That's not true. We have regulations for a reasons, and businesses have to abide by them.

Which regulations does Amazon violate in their warehouses?

The question OP suggested was "given that sometimes we regulate, should we also regulate against some amazom practices we deem bad".
