(Reuters) - Pressure is building on Amazon.com to come to the bargaining table with the Teamsters union as thousands of workers threaten to strike during the retailer’s busy holiday selling season.
Workers in New York City, southern California and Skokie, Illinois, voted in recent days to authorize a strike should Amazon fail to bargain with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. On Wednesday, the union said workers at Amazon facilities in Atlanta and in San Francisco joined in favor of striking.
