Amazon Coventry Workers Set for UK's First Legally Binding Union Vote
Apr 19, 2024, 10:45 AM
Amazon workers at a Coventry warehouse are set to participate in a historic, legally binding union recognition ballot, potentially becoming the first in the UK to secure formal union recognition. This follows a favorable ruling from a government body for the GMB union, which has been actively campaigning against Amazon's intensified anti-union efforts. If successful, this will mandate Amazon to negotiate with the GMB union regarding working conditions, pay, and other employment rights. The move has been met with widespread support from various political and union figures, highlighting its significance in the broader labor movement in Britain.
