Teamsters extends support to Amazon workers
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, a trade union in the United States and Canada, is making efforts to unite Amazon workers by creating a company-specific unit. 1.4 million workers of the US came forward to support Amazon workers. They voted to pressurize amazon for better working conditions and to meet employee needs.
In April, the Alabama workforce of Amazon voted against this as they feared it would negotiate their pays, and hence their first effort failed. But yet again the final result for the second time is to declare on Thursday. Amazon is yet to comment on this but internally steps are being taken by managers.
