OLS alleged that Amazon Flex failed to provide a deactivated worker with the specific incidents and records relied upon in the deactivation decision, and to timely respond to their appeal as required by the App-Based Worker Deactivation Rights Ordinance. To informally resolve the complaint, Amazon Flex agreed to restart the worker’s deactivation process to ensure the worker received a process that complies with the Ordinance and to pay the worker a total of $1,278.16, which includes $639.08 in civil penalties and $639.08 in fines.
