Amazon workers in Staten Island, New York, voted to unionize, marking the first successful U.S. organizing effort in the retail giant's history.
Kellogg's confirmed the agreement had been ratified in a statement Tuesday, saying all of the some 1,400 union-represented employees are "welcome back to work."
Logan said he didn't believe either union - the national or the independent labor group - would stand a chance with Amazon but he's even more shocked that a small union would be victorious given its limited resources. The group had also filed for a union election after getting support from about 30% of the facility's workforce, a much lower percentage than what unions usually seek.
"Getting Amazon to the bargaining table will be another feat all together," Sutton said."Oftentimes the union will fizzle out because the company doesn't come to the bargaining table in good faith as they're obliged to do. Both labor fights faced unique challenges. Alabama, for instance, is a right-to-work state that prohibits a company and a union from signing a contract that requires workers to pay dues to the union that represents them.
