Why the Attempt to Unionize at a US Amazon Warehouse Failed
Workers in Alabama tried to form the first union at an Amazon facility in the United States, but saw their efforts fail.
The final tally of the vote at the Bessemer warehouse was 1,798 to 738. Another 505 ballots were challenged, but that number is not sufficient to affect the results, according to the National Labor Relations Board.
Workers who opted against joining the Retail, Wholesale, and Department Store Union (RWDSU) said they did not know if the union could improve conditions that are already better than most entry-level jobs in the area and were not sure if their jobs would be safe.
