The email stated that the payment for transporting packages would be changed from 125 yen per package to 100 yen per package. The new contract would take effect from April 5th. Based on "customer needs," it also required that the number of working days per week be four or more.
The driver, who was completely taken by surprise, called an Amazon representative to ask for an explanation, and was told, "It's Amazon's decision." In an email he later received from the same representative, it was stated that the new pay rates were "based on regional operating costs, population density, and the labor market." When he requested an increase in the volume of packages he would deliver, he was told that "it depends on the demand for the products, so we cannot make any promises."
