Amazon Delivery Drivers
Must Sign ‘Biometric Consent’
Forms or Risk Losing Job.
This week, Amazon delivery drivers
nationwide were prompted to sign
a “biometric consent” form. .
The form will grant Amazon permission
to track a driver's location, movement and
biometric data via AI-powered cameras.
This Technology tracks vehicle
location and movement, including
miles driven, speed, acceleration,
braking, turns, and following
distance ... as a condition of
delivery packages for Amazon, you
consent to the use of Technology, Amazon, via Vice.
If a driver refuses to “consent to
the use of the Technology” outlined,
they lose their job. .
There are around 75,000 Amazon
delivery drivers in the United States. .
Amazon first announced its plan
to install AI-powered cameras in
its delivery vans in February.
The company said the technology would
be used to improve “safety” and
“quality of the delivery experience.” .
At the time, some drivers quit over
the coming changes because they viewed
it as an invasion of privacy.
