Fury as fourth postal worker dies at flagship USPS facility that has no phones

In the wake of a fourth death at a U.S. Postal Service megafacility in Georgia, a union leader blasted the government agency for its inadequate emergency response procedures.

Jonathan Smith, president of the American Postal Workers Union, called out a lack of emergency phones at a 1-million-square-foot USPS warehouse in Palmetto, Georgia, where an employee, Demarcus Little, Sr., 45, died earlier this month.

This marks the fourth death at the distribution facility since it opened in 2024.

“The emergency phones were not hooked up,” Smith exclusively told Raw Story.

“I’m not blaming [USPS] for the death, but I’m blaming them for their response because the quicker we can get an individual help, the better their chances are of survival, and what they have in place right now for a facility that’s over a million square feet, in my opinion, is unacceptable.”
