  + stars: | 2024-07-19 | by ( Lian Kit Wee | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Practical purchases dominated this year's Amazon Prime Day in the US, the 48 hours of mega-discounts that generate billions in sales. Last year, consumer electronics and cosmetics were among the top Prime Day purchases, CNBC reported. Adobe Analytics forecasted before the mega-sale that this year's Prime Day would hit a record $14 billion in sales, breaking 2023's record by 10.5%. And it's too early to know what Amazon shoppers bought around the world: Some countries' Prime Day sales stretch for nearly a week, while India's Prime Day happens later this summer. "It was Christmas in July quite frankly — a bigger day than Black Friday," Brian Olsavsky, Amazon's CFO, told investors after the company's first Prime Day.

Dollar General hasn't provided updates on a shareholder-endorsed audit of worker safety at its stores, an investor group says.

In May, Dollar General shareholders approved a proposal asking the company to audit worker safety at its stores. A Dollar General spokesperson said it has "a strong, ongoing shareholder engagement program and a well-documented track record of responsiveness to shareholder feedback."

The exhaust over the grill doesn't even work," Burger King employee and USSW member Arnice Sykes said in a statement. At a @BurgerKing in Decatur, the A/C is broken, workers are getting sick because of it, and Burger King does nothing. We spoke out along with other service workers to demand this extreme heat issue is stopped! Last week, workers at McDonald's locations in Houston, Texas, and Los Angeles each walked out after working without AC during heatwaves. And in Italy, unionized McDonald's workers went on strike as temperatures there reached 104 degrees Fahrenheit.
