Staten Island Unionization Effort Remains Intact as Amazon Fails to Provide Proof

Cornele Overstreet, a regional director with the National Labor Relations Board, supported the unionization of Amazon.Com, Inc AMZN workers in Staten Island, N.Y.
Overstreet rejected Amazon's appeal as the latter failed to provide sufficient evidence to overturn the election results, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Amazon has said the union and NLRB regional office that supervised the vote created an unfair playing field for the election.
Amazon said the union threatened employees and used other improper methods to convince voters.
In April 2022, workers from the Staten Island warehouse voted to form the company's first U.S. union.
Overstreet's ruling means Amazon must bargain with the union over a contract.
The union faced more difficulty organizing outside of Staten Island, as Amazon spent millions countering its efforts.
Amazon workers protested with employees at several facilities striking in recent months.
In November, a federal judge ordered Amazon to stop avenging workers organizing at the Staten Island facility that unionized.
Price Action: AMZN shares traded higher by 0.81% at $95.86 in the premarket on the last check Thursday.
