Amazon Union Vote Uncovers Signs Of Interference By Management
04/09/21 AT 1:54 PM
Amazon workers in Alabama seem to have voted against unionization, but some reports suggest evidence is already emerging of possible interference by management.
According to The Washington Post, Amazon undertook fairly standard actions for the company to win out, including text messages, posters, and mandatory anti-union training. Labor organizations like More Perfect Union, however, allege that atypical and possibly illegal tactics were also at play.
In total, unionization lost 1,798 to 738. Over 3,000 votes were cast out of 5,805 eligible employees. A successful vote would have seen the facility join the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union. It would have been the first labor union to form under Amazon in the U.S.
