Relevant snippet from Palo Alto:
Amazon has absurd injury rates while they get a lot of great press for their "automation", but what such "automation" is actually doing is setting a dangerous pace for the human bodies. With such high turnover and higher than local average wages, Amazon is able to pace workers at inhuman speeds, to their body's breaking point, because each individual worker is an expiring commodity to them.
