The US federal government is investigating the deaths of three Amazon workers who died at facilities in New Jersey over several weeks this summer.
The first death occurred July 13 in Middlesex County at the company’s EWR9 fulfillment center in the 8000 block of Industrial Highway in Carteret, an Amazon official said. The man died during Prime Day, the company’s biggest sale event of the year.
