, who led the Amazon Labor Union's grassroots efforts on Staten Island., "The ALU @amazonlabor is officially a certified union ‼️This is a huge moment for the labor movement! We will continue fighting for a better contract for all @amazon workers across the world."
The JFK8 vote at the end of March showed a majority of the 8,325 eligible voters cast ballots in favor of the Amazon Labor Union. Amazon had contested those results soon after, arguing that the Amazon Labor Union engaged in "conduct warranting setting aside the election and conducting a rerun election," the NLRB said.
Wednesday's decision, the NLRB said, found that Amazon did succeed in proving that case, and must now come to the bargaining table with union leaders. The NLRB definition of bargaining in good faith says "this duty encompasses many obligations, including a duty not to make certain changes without bargaining with the union and not to bypass the union and deal directly with employees it represents."
