NLRB rules in favor of union victory at Staten Island Amazon warehouse, which may help move contract negotiations along
On Wednesday, the National Labor Relations Board rejected Amazon's attempt to overturn the union victory at the Staten Island warehouse at the regional level. Amazon had argued that the union election was conducted improperly based on the actions of both the NLRB and union. However, the board found a lack of evidence in support of this. The Amazon Labor Union is hoping this decision will encourage Amazon to stop stalling contract negotiations, while the company is planning on appealing the decision.
