Amazon Warehouse Workers Strike Amid Holiday Rush

by Giezel Garcia

in Warehousing & Distribution

Unionized workers at several Amazon warehouses initiated a strike on December 19, 2024, in locations including New York City, Atlanta, Southern California, San Francisco, and Skokie, Illinois. The strike follows the expiration of a December 15 bargaining deadline imposed by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, which represents thousands of drivers and warehouse workers across 10 Amazon facilities.

The Teamsters have cited issues such as Amazon’s refusal to recognize and negotiate with union chapters, low wages, poor working conditions, and union-busting practices as key reasons for the strike. The union also emphasized that its members have the legal right to participate in the action, with plans to expand the strike to other Amazon facilities.

In response, Amazon stated that the strike has had no significant impact on its operations, dismissing the action as a public relations effort and claiming that most of the individuals involved are not actual Amazon workers. Amazon spokesperson Kelly Nantel stated that the strikers are primarily “outsiders” and refuted claims of worker involvement, while accusing the Teamsters of unlawful conduct.

The Teamsters countered by asserting that the strike includes Amazon employees at various locations across the country. Teamsters spokesperson Kara Deniz emphasized the legitimacy of the strike, stating that Amazon’s claims are misleading.

Despite the ongoing strike, Amazon has not disclosed details on its negotiations with workers, but the company reiterated its commitment to engaging directly with employees and highlighted recent improvements to wages and working conditions. Amazon also noted its increased starting wages and the provision of free Prime memberships for employees.

As of now, nearly 10,000 Amazon workers are part of the Teamsters, with a focus on securing better wages, benefits, and working conditions. The strike follows a broader effort by the Teamsters, which established a division to organize Amazon workers two years ago. Additionally, the strike comes shortly after a U.S. Senate report accused Amazon warehouses of creating a “uniquely dangerous” work environment, a claim the company has disputed, calling the report “selective” and “outdated.”

The strike is ongoing, with no set end date provided by the union.
