Amazon labor dispute in Italy

Overview

A labor dispute has emerged in Italy regarding Amazon's decision to transfer logistics operations from Malpensa Airport to a site in Brescia-Montichiari.

Initially, transport unions (CGIL, CISL, UIL, and UGL) reported that Amazon and its subcontractor, GDA, failed to attend a scheduled meeting to discuss the move, which is set for September 2026. Unions expressed concern that the relocation could jeopardize the jobs of approximately 196 workers currently employed at the Malpensa warehouse.

Following the missed negotiations, the Prefect of Varese intervened by summoning Amazon to a meeting scheduled for August 12 to address the potential employment crisis.
