An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Amazon may be forced to meet some unionized delivery drivers at the bargaining table after a regional National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) director determined Thursday that Amazon is a joint employer of contractors hired to ensure the e-commerce giant delivers its packages when promised. In a press release reviewed by Ars, the NLRB regional director confirmed that as a joint employer, Amazon had "unlawfully failed and refused to bargain with the union" after terminating their DSP's contract and terminating "all unionized employees." Apparently downplaying the NLRB determination, Amazon is claiming that the Teamsters are trying to "misrepresent what is happening here."
