Amazon CEO accused of trampling labor laws with anti-union comments
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has been accused of breaking US labor laws by spouting anti-union comments in the media.
Shortly after ALU's victory, Jassy conducted interviews with CNBC and Bloomberg claiming workers were"better off" not joining a union. Now the US National Labor Relations Board is pulling up the chief exec on those comments, which could be interpreted as interfering with people's right to organize – or even intimidation – which would break labor laws.
"We believe our employees, their families, and other stakeholders benefit from a full understanding of the facts on important topics like this. We're committed to ensuring everyone understands our perspective and to explaining it respectfully and transparently.
