Listen "Efforts to unionize Amazon warehouses and improve working conditions for all"
Episode Synopsis
By now, we've all heard about the poor working conditions Amazon workers face globally. So, why then, are there only two unionized Amazon factories in North America? Labour reporter Gabriela Calugay-Casuga talks to Félix Trudeau, the president of the first union to be certified at an Amazon warehouse in Canada, about his efforts unionizing his colleagues and what other Canadian workers can learn from their experiences. About our guest Félix Trudeau is the president of the first union to be certified at an Amazon warehouse in Canada. The union was created in May 2024 and is a part of the Confédération des syndicats nationaux (CSN). Trudeau and his colleagues have entered their first round of collective bargaining with Amazon. Members continue to mobilize to secure the first collective agreement in the history of the multinational.
