Thousands of Amazon warehouse workers at an Alabama facility will begin voting next month on whether to unionize their workplace, potentially paving the way for the first US-based union at the e-commerce giant

The election will allow approximately 6,000 employees at the company's Bessemer, Alabama, facility to cast a vote by mail-in ballots beginning Feb. 8, according to a decision from the National Labor Relations Board posted on Friday. The union push comes at a time when Amazon's warehouse working conditions have come under heightened scrutiny during the pandemic. The company has hired hundreds of thousands more workers globally to support a surge in demand.

Workers at the facility first filed a notice in November with the NLRB about holding an election.Read More"Having a union at Amazon would give us the right to collectively bargain over our working conditions including items such as safety standards, training, breaks, pay, benefits, and other important issues that would make our workplace better," reads a website in support of unionizing Amazon's Bessemer workers.

Go for it! I hope you get your union. Please, just don’t abuse their leverage to the point that in comes back to bite you.

Working there SUCKS.

These people will lose their jobs. Amazon will hire the Illegals that you voted to give amnesty to and pay them much less......you remember ' the jobs that Americans dont want to do '.......

This country was built by hard working union people I say to all you Amazon workers, vote yes to unionize in Alabama. Wel one to the labor movement. Organize!
