What you need to know right now
There's been growing confusion over the employment status of Amazon's delivery drivers. Although they wear Amazon uniforms and drive vans with the company's branding, these drivers are typically classified as independent contractors—not official Amazon employees.
This classification shields Amazon from legal responsibility in cases of driver misconduct or accidents. It's also a major reason why many drivers have protested, citing poor treatment and stressful working conditions. Many of them are demanding to be officially recognized as Amazon employees to receive better protections and benefits.
As one driver told CNN, 'If we weren't Amazon workers, we wouldn't be driving their trucks, wearing their uniforms, or delivering their packages.'
Much of the confusion stems from Amazon's Delivery Service Partner (DSP) Program, a system that allows third-party businesses to handle deliveries on Amazon's behalf.
