The Amazon Labor Union is the only labor organization to pull off a union win at an Amazon warehouse in the U.S.
FILE - People arrive for work at the Amazon distribution center in the Staten Island borough of New York, on Oct. 25, 2021. New York City warehouse workers who are part of the Amazon Labor Union overwhelmingly voted to align themselves with the Teamsters as they try to get a contract from the online retailer.
The approximately 5,500 Amazon warehouse workers in Staten Island will be represented by a newly chartered ALU-International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 1. It will have jurisdiction for Amazon warehouse workers across New York’s five boroughs. The group won its election at the Staten Island warehouse in 2022 but hasn't been able to secure a union contract due to opposition from Amazon.
The Teamsters previously said the step would bring it closer to its goal of unionizing Amazon’s non-corporate workforce. The union has been pushing to organize Amazon’s driving workforce, though that effort hasn’t led to any major wins recognized by the company.
