The U.S. National Labor Relations Board has filed a complaint against Amazon, accusing the company of illegally refusing to negotiate with the Teamsters union representing drivers from a contractor, Battle Tested Strategies. The complaint argues Amazon is a 'joint employer' of these drivers, asserting the company discouraged union activities and unlawfully terminated its contract with BTS after the drivers unionized. This case could set a precedent for Amazon's responsibilities towards other contractor employees if ruled in favor of the NLRB.
