US court rejects order preventing Amazon from firing pro-union workers

Reported 7 months ago

A U.S. appeals court overturned a judge's order that prohibited Amazon from dismissing union supporters amidst a nationwide warehouse organizing campaign. The Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals criticized the lack of explanation for the broad mandate issued by the National Labor Relations Board. The order stemmed from Amazon firing a union organizer in 2020, with subsequent warehouse unionization efforts in New York and Alabama. The court concluded that preventing Amazon from firing other workers was unnecessary without evidence of broader impact, despite the 2022 ruling against Amazon for violating labor rights.
