Amazon warehouse workers at New York City's largest Amazon warehouse and three neighboring facilities have announced that they plan to file for a union election, gearing up for another labor battle at the country's second largest employer.
On Thursday, Amazon Labor Union announced that more than 2,000 Amazon employees at the retail giant's Staten Island facilities have signed union authorization cards and at least 100 employees have joined a worker's committee. They intend to petition for an election before the National Labor Relations Board next week.
