A complaint filed with the National Labor Relations Board is the latest example of Amazon's clashes with its workers.
Packages move along a conveyor in June 2018 at the Amazon fulfillment center in Robbinsville, N.J. By Rachel Siegel Rachel Siegel National business reporter Email Bio Follow March 21 at 3:58 PM Amazon’s clashes with employees over worker’s rights and unionization now include a Staten Island warehouse worker who says his criticism of the company led to his firing.
“At Amazon, these benefits and opportunities come with the job, as does the ability to communicate directly with the leadership of the company,” Amazon said. Long said that a product fell off one of the robots near where he was working, and that he put it back on the robot. The company told him the next day that amounted to a low-level safety violation, and he was fired days later. The letter alleges that another employee also put a fallen product back on a robot but wasn’t permanently fired.
In 2014, Amazon settled with the NLRB over a worker’s rights complaint and agreed to change the rules about how employees share information about pay and working conditions without fear of retaliation. Employees nationwide have tried to unionize for years, alongside calls for backup day-care benefits and higher pay.
