Fast delivery services have transformed global shopping habits, enabling customers to receive orders within hours or days. However, new research indicates that the workers behind these rapid deliveries are facing worsening conditions. The study highlights the human cost of the e-commerce boom, particularly in warehouses operated by major players like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE: BABA).
The pressure to meet tight deadlines often leads to increased workloads, longer hours, and heightened stress among warehouse staff. These conditions can result in physical and mental health issues, as well as higher turnover rates. The research underscores the need for e-commerce firms to address these challenges to ensure sustainable operations.
