(ATLANTA) – Amazon Teamsters at the DGT8 facility in Atlanta have voted unanimously to authorize a strike after the corporate giant refused to recognize their union and begin negotiations for a first contract.
(亞特蘭大) - 亞馬遜的工會成員在亞特蘭大的DGT8設施上投票一致授權罷工，因爲這家企業拒絕承認他們的工會並開始首次合同的談判。
"If Amazon Teamsters are forced onto the picket line, it's because the company has failed its workforce," said Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien. "Amazon workers want to earn a good living, have decent health care, and be safe on the job. They are done with the disrespect, and if Amazon keeps pushing them, they will push them to strike."
「如果亞馬遜的工會成員被迫上抗議線，那是因爲公司未能滿足其勞動力的需求，」工會總裁肖恩·O'Brien說。「亞馬遜工人希望能掙到體面的收入，擁有良好的醫療保健，和在工作中安全。他們已對這種不尊重感到厭倦，如果亞馬遜繼續施壓，他們將被迫罷工。」
The Teamsters Union represents nearly 10,000 Amazon workers at 10 facilities throughout the United States. Workers at eight of these facilities have now authorized strikes.
工會代表近10,000名在全美10個設施工作的亞馬遜工人。這些設施中有八個的工人現在已授權罷工。
Across the country, a movement is growing among Amazon's workers to take control of their futures by unionizing with the Teamsters.
在全國範圍內，亞馬遜的工人正在興起一場運動，旨在通過與工會聯合來掌控他們的未來。
"This is why we joined the Teamsters in the first place," said Gregory Dunn, a worker at DGT8. "If we don't fight Amazon's greed now, they'll think they can get away with anything."
「這就是我們最初選擇加入工會的原因，」DGT8的工人格雷戈裏·鄧恩說。「如果我們現在不與亞馬遜的貪婪作鬥爭，他們會認爲他們可以爲所欲爲。」
At facilities nationwide, Amazon has broken the law by refusing to recognize their unionized workers and bargain for a labor agreement. By ignoring the Dec. 15 deadline set by the Teamsters to come to the table and negotiate a contract, Amazon has set itself up to face large-scale labor actions during the busy holiday season.
在全國各地的設施中，亞馬遜通過拒絕承認他們的工會工人併爲勞動協議進行談判違反了法律。通過無視工會設定的12月15日截止日期來進行合同談判，亞馬遜將面臨在繁忙的假期季節期間進行大規模的勞動行動。
