A lawsuit is expected to be filed against Amazon Monday on behalf of the family of a delivery driver who was killed in December when a tornado struck one of the company’s facilities in Southern Illinois.
"Initial reports from those that survived this avoidable tragedy are disturbing," Jack Casciato, partner at Clifford Law Offices, who represents McEwen's family, said in a news release."We certainly intend to discover what precautions Amazon could have taken to save lives. Certainly, this entire facility could have bene evacuated when it was believed a tornado was en route.
A complaint, which is expected to be filed Monday, alleges Amazon failed to adhere to Occupational Health and Safety Administration preparedness plans, chose to have people continue working during the peak holiday season and failed to have a facility that contained a basement shelter.NBC 5 has reached out to Amazon for comment, but hadn't received a response as of Sunday night.
