Nonostante la propaganda della direzione aziendale contro il sindacato, permessa negli Usa, per la prima volta le Union entrano all’interno della sede di Staten Island, a New York, della grande società, fondata da Jeff Bezos, che ha rivoluzionato il mondo del commercio digitale e la vita di milioni di persone nel mondo.

Si tratta di una grande vittoria per l’Amazon labor union che ha ricevuto un consenso maggioritario da parte dei dipendenti nel referendum interno necessario a livello preventivo per permettere l’organizzazione dei lavoratori all’interno del ciclo produttivo per far valere i diritti basilari che affondano nella storia del movimento operaio che, proprio negli Usa, ha registrato alcune delle esperienze più significative come quella degli Industrial Workers of the World.
