US regulators find Amazon illegally fired activist employees: report
NY Post
A US labor agency has reportedly found that Amazon illegally fired two employees last year who had publicly blasted the company’s employment and environmental policies.
The National Labor Relations Board informed the targeted employees — Emily Cunningham and Maren Costa — that their terminations a year ago amounted to retaliation and that the agency would take action against Amazon unless it settled their cases, according to documents cited in a New York Times report. Cunningham and Costa had been looking to pressure Amazon over its environmental impact as part of a group — Amazon Employees for Climate Justice — that had secured the support of nearly 9,000 Amazon employees starting in 2018.More Related News
