SKOKIE, Ill., Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Teamsters at the DIL7 Amazon delivery station in Skokie, Ill., have voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike as part of their fight for a union contract that improves wages and benefits and strengthens workplace safety. This follows Amazon Teamsters at two New York City facilities announcing on Friday that they had authorized strikes.
伊利諾伊州斯科基，2024年12月16日 /PRNewswire/ -- 伊利諾伊州斯科基的DIL7亞馬遜配送站的團隊工人以壓倒性票數投票授權罷工，以爭取改善工資和福利並強化工作場所安全的工會合同。這是繼亞馬遜團隊在紐約市的兩個設施上週五宣佈授權罷工後做出的決定。
"The way Amazon treats its workers is un-American," said Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien. "Amazon's so-called 'leaders' should treat their workers fairly — they just want to put food on the table for their families. Instead, Amazon executives risk ruining the holidays for their customers because of their addiction to putting profits over people."
團隊工會總裁肖恩·O'Brien說："亞馬遜對待工人的方式是看跌的。" "亞馬遜所謂的'領袖'應該公正對待他們的工人——他們只想爲家人提供餐食。然而，亞馬遜的高管卻因爲對利潤的沉迷，冒着毀掉客戶假期的風險。"
DIL7 serves thousands of households throughout Chicagoland. The Teamsters represent hundreds of workers at the facility.
DIL7爲芝加哥地區的數千戶家庭提供服務。團隊工會在該設施代表數百名工人。
"Amazon is one of the biggest companies on Earth, but we are struggling to pay our bills," said Riley Holzworth, a worker at DIL7. "Other workers are seeing our example and joining our movement, because we are only going to get the treatment we deserve if we fight for it."
DIL7的工人拉里·霍爾茨沃思說："亞馬遜是地球上最大的公司之一，但我們正爲支付賬單而掙扎。其他工人看到我們的榜樣，加入我們的運動，因爲只有通過鬥爭我們才能獲得應有的待遇。"
Since these workers joined the Teamsters, Amazon has illegally refused to recognize their union and bargain a labor agreement.
自從這些工人加入團隊工會以來，亞馬遜非法拒絕承認他們的工會並進行勞動協議談判。
The Teamsters gave Amazon a deadline of December 15 to come to the bargaining table and negotiate a contract. Amazon chose to ignore that deadline and is pushing workers across the country closer to launching a strike that could disrupt operations for customers at the height of the holiday season.
團隊工會給亞馬遜設定了12月15日的最後期限，以便進行談判並達成合同。亞馬遜選擇忽視這一最後期限，正在推動全國各地的工人更接近發起罷工，這可能會在假期高峰期干擾客戶的運營。
"The ball is in Amazon's court," said Juan Campos, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 705. "If they keep breaking the law, they will face the consequences."
當地705分會的書記兼財務主管胡安·坎波斯表示："現在該亞馬遜採取行動了。" "如果他們繼續違反法律，將面臨後果。"
