Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O), the second-largest U.S. private employer, told its staff on Monday it will pay up to $4,000 in travel expenses annually for non-life threatening medical treatments including abortions, according to a message seen by Reuters.

The decision makes the online retailer the latest company after Citigroup Inc (C.N), Yelp Inc (YELP.N) and others to respond to Republican-backed state laws curbing abortion access, helping employees bypass them. It shows how companies are eager to retain and attract talent in locations that remain important to their operations despite legal changes impacting employees' health.

Citigroup and Yelp are apparently doing similar things. I wonder how many other companies will start doing stuff like this, especially if the Supreme Court really overturns Roe v. Wade.

Good for them. The cynic in me thinks its the same sort of powerful people and interests that own Amazon that would support the repeal of Roe v Wade and then use the situation as a PR move.

I feel like workers will exploit this just to get a break from the slavedrivers that is Amazon management >_> Maybe they'll actually get to use a real bathroom instead of peeing in bottles all day. Don't let this 'good deed' distract you from their horrible treatment of employees
