Amazon allegedly retaliates against worker at its Bessemer facility
Isaiah Thomas is a 20-year-old Amazon worker at the company's Bessemer, Alabama facility, BHM1. He is also a vocal supporter of unionizing the warehouse. In a conference with press Monday evening, he described what he believed were surveillance and retaliation by his employer, solely because of his support for collective bargaining efforts.
RWDSU, however, believes this action was itself in violation of"the settlement agreement the employer recently executed with the NLRB." That, which was reported late last month, pertained to several instances of Amazon impeding union activity. The union filed a separate ULP, alleging that the company or its agents"created the impression Mr. Thomas was under surveillance.
BHM1 famously became the first large Amazon facility on US soil to hold a union vote. While the vote swung heavily in favor of the cloud-and-ecommerce giant, it was challenged on procedural grounds by RWDSU. The NLRB found merit to the challenge, ruling that Amazon had, in fact, illegallywith the unionization vote. Ultimately the Board determined a new vote should be held.
