Amazon UK could be forced to recognise first union
Amazon could soon be forced to recognise a trade union in the UK for the first time. The GMB union says it has enrolled a majority of workers at Amazon's Coventry warehouse which qualifies them for recognition by law. The union estimates that there are 1,300 workers at the Amazon distribution centre in Coventry. The CAC could automatically grant recognition if it is persuaded that a majority of the workforce wants the union to represent them. Workers at the Coventry warehouse first started protesting about their pay last August - when only 30 of them were members of the GMB. They held the first ever Amazon strike in the UK in January.
