Amazon is turning away employees with temperatures over than 100.4 degrees and slashing up to half their pay

Alfonso Di Vincenzo/KONTROLAB/LightRocket via Getty Images Some Amazon facilities have started conducting daily temperature checks of employees before they go into work. If an employee registers a temperature above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, they are required to stay home until they have been fever-free for 72 hours. Despite being forced to stay home, Amazon will only pay workers up to 5 hours of their missed time. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.
