According to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), 1,798 votes were cast opposing unionising, and 738 ballots were cast in favour.
The Bessemer, Alabama vote has attracted national and international attention and marked the first time since 2014 that online retail giant’s workers have attempted to unionise in the United States.
Amazon is the second-largest private employer in the US and has been heavily criticised in recent years for its treatment of warehouse workers both in the US and abroad.
