The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ruled Nov. 29 that Amazon’s “flagrant disregard” for labor law was so egregious that a new election must be held at its distribution center in Bessemer, Alabama, to determine whether workers there want a union.
In mail ballots counted April 9, the workers voted 1,798 to 738 against joining the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU).
No date has been set yet for a new election.
