Summary
The National Labor Relations Board upheld the results of a union election at Amazon's Staten Island warehouse, where workers voted to join the Amazon Labor Union. Amazon has objected to the ruling and intends to appeal it. The process of negotiating a collective bargaining agreement between the employer and the newly unionized workers can be delayed. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has said there were "a lot of irregularities" in the union drive. The union has called on Jassy to come to the table and sign a contract.
