End of Month Check In -- On Amazon's Pattern Of Ongoing Labor Abuses: This Time, At Staten Island -- Found To Have Violated The NLRA...

Well. . . Mr. Bezos is nothing, if not consistent -- in his disregard for the labor laws that apply to his US facilities. This time, his minions refused to allow a certified union rep to be present at disciplinary hearings -- an egregious violation of applicable federal law -- in the Amazon Staten Island complex of facilities.

Here's that story -- from earlier this month:

. . .Amazon.com Services LLC violated federal labor law in multiple cases at a Staten Island, N.Y., warehouse when it failed to provide workers the opportunity to have a union representative present during disciplinary meetings and suspended a worker for 10 weeks with pay for being a union leader, a National Labor Relations Board judge ruled May 6.

Administrative Law Judge Benjamin Green did, however, dismiss charges alleging Amazon suspended and discharged another employee for union activity.

The company and Amazon Labor Union have been at odds since the warehouse workers won a historic election vote for union representation in 2022 and were later certified by NLRB. Neither Amazon nor the union immediately responded to a request for comment. . . .

In the higher mountains of Colorado starting Tuesday, through the following Sunday -- so blogging may be sporadic, here. Onward.
