“ food-delivery workers — will never earn decent pay from the platforms if they are divided - challenge the Bosses to improve their situation. Class unity and #solidarity is the most effective way to get the powerful to listen. “

@lkanies This was one of the best articles I've read all year. Seriously, it felt like Pulitzer material. I don't think @joshdzieza reads his fediverse account, but major props.

A National Movement to Organize Amazon Takes Off

The Teamsters are spinning off momentum from recent organizing fights to new battle fronts across Amazon’s logistics chain. A group of 100 warehouse workers at DCK6, an Amazon delivery station in San Francisco, marched on company managers October 2 demanding voluntary recognition rather than filing for a National Labor Relations Board-supervised election. In the Teamsters’ strategy to organize the logistics behemoth by a thousand cuts, this is the first time that warehouse workers—rather than delivery drivers nominally employed by a subcontractor—have demanded recognition.

Labor Notes
KristinaJul 29, 2024

Mayor Eric Adams' trade-in program for unsafe e-bikes misses the mark, ignoring the real issue: unchecked growth and lax regulation of the e-bike delivery industry. Legalized in 2020, these often-dangerous e-bikes have led to many accidents and fires. Instead of superficial fixes, NYC needs stringent licensing, mandatory insurance, and better battery storage laws to ensure public safety and protect vulnerable workers.

NYC takes a big step towards safer, more sustainable deliveries! The city is set to roll out sidewalk charging stations for e-bikes and offer safer e-bikes to delivery workers. This is a win for both riders and pedestrians. #NYC #eBikes #ElectricVehicles #DeliveryWorkers #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #UrbanPlanning #Infrastructure #SafetyFirst #NewYorkCity
