Amazon violated labor law at JFK8 warehouse
CNBC —
In April 2022, Amazon was found to have violated federal labor law at its JFK8 warehouse in New York, during a period of increased union organizing activity. The National Labor Relations Board ruled that Amazon committed multiple violations, including interrogating and threatening employees, racially disparaging organizers, and illegally confiscating organizing materials. Amazon will be required to post notices of workers' rights and compensate affected employees. The company spent $14 million on anti-union consultants in 2022.
