7:32Now PlayingAmazon.com Inc. clinched a victory in a historic election to determine whether workers at its warehouse in Bessemer, Alabama, will become the first in the U.S. to join a retail union.
With disputed ballots yet to be reviewed, Amazon had 1,798 no votes, a clear majority of the 3,215 ballots cast. The Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union had 738.
With Amazon already well ahead in the tally on Thursday, the union pledged to appeal the result.
In a Friday statement, the RWDSU confirmed it would file complaints with the National Labor Relations Board accusing Amazon of violating employees’ rights in the election and asking the agency to consider overturning the result.
