Amazon, like most companies, has organized systems for its employees to follow. Since the work is in warehouses, the work is primarily materials labeling and transfer. Each plant is somewhat different. What is consistent is that the jobs are physical and require that each employee meets production standards. Amazon is interested in hiring blind people for other jobs too. </div><div>Dick Davis <br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Jun 1, 2022, at 3:48 PM, Bryan Schulz via Job-Discussions <job-discussions@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><!--[if !mso]><style>v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);}
