Inside the warehouse, Amazon employees wear blue badges, and the workers supplied by the agencies wear green badges. In the most basic roles they perform the same tasks as each other for the same pay of £6.20 an hour or so (the minimum adult wage is £6.19), but the Amazon workers also receive a pension and shares.
Perfectly true at the time the article was written. What's not true is your statement that:

no pensions will ever be paid to those workers.
Under new pension law, which comes into force this April, the employer of agency staff (ie the agency itself) will have to provide a pension scheme for their staff.
