workers made
to wait for
security checks
Amazon can be a modern marvel
of efficiency when it’s profitable to
be. But its warehouse workers have
been made to wait up to 25 minutes
— after they clock out — for a secu-
rity guard to check they haven’t
stolen anything. Several of them —
employees of temp agency Integrity
Staffing Solutions — filed a federal
lawsuit demanding pay for that time,
and the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap-
peals agreed, saying they should be
paid because the screenings were per-
formed for the employer’s benefit and
were integral to their jobs.
But the employer appealed, and
the Obama Administration agreed
with the employer. On Dec. 8, a unan-
imous Supreme Court overturned the
9th Circuit ruling, saying their em-
ployer doesn’t have to pay them for
security screening time, because it’s
unrelated to their primary job duties.
The ruling was written by Justice
Clarence Thomas, one of the most
anti-worker justices on the Court.
Ironically, he seemed to suggest
workers would be better off unioniz-
ing: He wrote that employee argu-
ments that the screenings should be
paid time “are properly presented to
the employer at the bargaining table,
not to a court in an FLSA (Fair Labor
Standards Act) claim.”
