ROME: Italy's labour ministry sent officials to e-commerce giant Amazon on Dec 7 to check on working conditions there, the department's team of inspectors said in a statement. 

Eleven inspectors went to Amazon's site near the northern financial capital Milan, two weeks after unions representing its workers called a strike on so-called Black Friday, one of the busiest shopping days of the year.
