Amazon staff faced Garner, North Carolina

Italo Medelius-Marsano was a student of the Central University of North Carolina in 2022, when he took a job Gym Warehouse Raleigh near the city, earning extra money.

Last month has been unlike the company’s three-year term. When it appears at the shipping dock, Medelius-Marsano says Flyers and Mounted TVs met. Anti-unions website. During meetings, directors exclude syndication.

Garner’s neighborhood facilities, about 4,700 employees of North Carolina, is the last presentation of the final labor of Amazon. Employees on the site They are voting this week Whether Carolina is associated with the Amazonians and to empower (cause), consisting of current and former staff.

The Cause Organizers began in 2022 in an effort to promote salaries and improve working conditions. Vote on the site, known as RDU1, is collected on Saturday.

RGU1 staff and other facilities CNBC said that Amazon uses digital tools to unindatatize staff. This includes messaging through the company’s application and workplace computer. There are also automatic software and hand package scanners It is used to continue the performance of employees within the warehouse, so the company knows when employees are working or doing something else.

“You can’t escape or be careful from the propaganda against the Union, because you are working on the building,” Medelius-Marsano said, as a cause of the cause. “You can’t work without scanning a sheet or logging in a machine. They follow you like that.”

Move representatives to rule their field to rdu1 staff. The Union has set a “cause HQ” tent from the street to the station and the installation room to eliminate brochures.

Amazon, the second largest private nationberry, has long been sought for unions left out of its level. The strategy got in the US Up to 2022Staten Island workers voted when they entered the Amazon Labor Union. Last month, Filadelphia Food Store Employees voted The union of food and commercial workers.

In December, Amazon’s delivery and nine facility staff progressed assaultOrganized by team members to promote a business bargaining table during the holiday season. The strike ended on Christmas night.

The union elections in other Amazon warehouses of New York have ended in recent years while discussing the results of the unions of the unions of a Alabama facility. Organizers indicated Amazon follows the continuous staff as a catalyst and as a deviant of union campaigns.

Nlrb 343 has published or liquidated work internships archived with an agency against its subsidiaries and US delivery contracts. Said a spokesman.

Amazon argues that NLRB, in legal files that contain complaints against companies that violated labor law or trade unions, is innocent. Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Starbucks And Trader Joe also made similar claims that challenge the rule of the agency.

Amazon Spokesperson Eileen Hard said whether the company’s staff can choose whether or not to join the Union.

“We believe that the two decisions should be protected equally.

Hards said that the company does not avenge the union activities, and claims to trade the “odd” monitoring of their staff.

“The site is working, so employees expect to complete the usual job,” he said in a statement. “Further, the camera technology is not supported by employees in our facilities – the flow of goods is driven by the flow of goods and ensures safety and security of employees and inventories.”

Orin Starn, Amazon at the beginning of Amazon, December, violating the company’s drug and alcohol policy, called Amazon’s employees called “Algorithmic work management”. Starn Duke University is a professor of anthropology in 2023 to work for a book for Amazon’s book.

“When you had a supervisor in a factory 100 years ago, in a modern warehouse like Amazon, you follow digitally through the scanner,” Starn said.

Other academics pay close attention to the problem. A Research paper Published last week, the Doctoral Teke Wiggin at Northwestern University explored the use of Amazon algorithms and digital devices in BESMERE BHM1 warehouse, Alabama.

“The black box that comes with algorithmic management makes it harder when deciding on a staff or activist,” Wiggin said in an interview. “Maybe their schedule varies, it’s harder than used, the employer can say that it has nothing to do with us, if that’s not algorithm changed.”

Some Amazon staff sees the situation in a different way. Storm Smith RDU1 works as a process assistant, which involves controlling employee productivity and security. Amazon told Cnbc to tell Smith to report this story.

Amazon’s workplace controls, like rate and time task, “part of the work,” Smith said. Staff are “always welcome” to ask what their rate is.

“For my people, if I think your rate is not, I will come to you and tell you,” Hey, this is your rate, do you feel well? Is there anything to get something? Up to your rate? As a snack, the drink, whatever, said Smith.

Wiggin interviewed 42 BHM1 staff following the first elections in 2021 and reviewed records of hearing headphones. The facility had more than 5,800 employees in the Union unit.

NLRB last November He ordered the Third Union Voting To be able to do it in BHM1, after Improved in Amazon’s previous two elections. The company has worsened.

Amazon staff said during the Wiggin Union campaign, the company changed some performance expectations for “improving working conditions” and dissolving syndics. An employee said these changes to some extent why he voted against the Union, according to the study.

Employees of a Amazon warehouse, San Luis, Missouri, archived – Nlrb complaint in May. Employees accused Amazon to use “intrusive algorithms” when they work when they are organizing. The guard reported. Employees withdrew the complaint on Tuesday.

Hards said that Amazon does not have employees to meet specific productivity speeds or purposes.

The legislators came to the zero to zero, which can affect the organization of efforts in recent years. In 2022, NLRB General Advice Gave a memory Calling the group to use “Surveillance Almightic and Algorithmic-Management tools” to organize efforts. Next year, Biden Administration A Information request In the automated staff care and management, the systems can be aware that employees can create risks, “to form their rights or unity”.

However, Trump is trying to admin Clear NLRBThe first day of office on the first month of office fired the president of the organization. Trump has Put Muskari, a well-known union opponent, in charge of the so-called government efficiency, with the aim of reducing government costs and regulations.

Jennifer Bates, a remarkable organizer of the BHM1. Learned Amazon to shoot him 2023 through the door. It was later Amazon re-established “After the full review of his case,” he gave backpay, hard.

He wanted to replace the BHM1 staff at a retail, wholesale and department store. he said Atoz applications can include user GPS, photos, camera, microphone and wifi-connection information. The Union also claimed that “Amazon can sell data collected by third parties and delete data”. The technology said he creates a variety of concerns, among other things, he said he can remove “right to organize.”

Hards said that RWDSU’s claims are inaccurate and denied that the company has denied data affiliated with the use of ACO. He said the ATOZ user must allow the application to access the GPS location.

At the Garner Installation, the ACOCE application has been carried out by the “Anti-Union Union Propaganda, since the last month, Medelius-Marsano said since last month, Medelius-Marsano said.

A trailer was proposed if the benefits of employees voted in the Union, and “The claim” is another as described as the “outer aspect”.

Kristen Tettemer RDU1 site said in another message “we work together”, and “once, that union is very difficult.” Smith said Amazon’s response to the Union Union drive “Putting incidents and to do your research”.

Medelius-Marsano said it’s an environment of fear.

“There is no doubt,” Medelius-Marsano said. “If we lose, fear will be the reason.”
