Amazon Reproduces Labour Problems, Employees Oppose Union
In the warehouse of Amazon Co in Delaware, P, 30 warehouse workers voted for the establishment of a union. Most employees voted against it in the first round of voting.
< /p >
< p > 15, in a warehouse of "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "Amazon" < /a > Delaware, the technicians and machinists responsible for maintaining orders management equipment rejected the earlier proposal on the establishment of the mechanic workers association by voting 21 to 6.
This result is a great victory for Amazon.
Amazon has publicly opposed the establishment of trade unions, and according to the union officials, even held meetings to persuade employees to vote against the establishment of "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "trade union /a".
< /p >
< p >, however, this vote can not alleviate the tension faced by Amazon on labor issues. Apart from trade unions, the international Machinists and aerospace workers association is also ready to intervene in this matter.
< /p >
Unlike P, Amazon is more dependent on manual labor and monotonous duplication. With the increasing scale of the company, the expectations of customers are higher and higher, and the pressure on workers is also increasing. Therefore, the hidden factors of instability are more and more obvious.
< /p >
< p > early twenty-first Century, Amazon re established its own "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "order management system < /a", shocked the industry.
Brad Stone described the system in detail in the The Everything Store. Amazon did not follow the customary warehouse organizing method to put the products with high purchase frequency together, but developed an algorithm to guide workers to pick up goods on seemingly random routes.
Facts have proved that Amazon's practice greatly reduces the picking time.
< /p >
Redesigning P warehouse shows Amazon's self-awareness, making it no longer a simple retailer, but more of a technology company.
However, no matter how complex the order and distribution system of Amazon is, it will ultimately depend on manpower to pick up goods from shelves.
For example, in the past Christmas shopping season, Amazon hired 70 thousand temporary warehouse workers to cope with the peak of orders.
No matter how clever the warehouse algorithm is, the bottleneck lies in the efficiency of the workers.
< /p >
< p > the special demand for human labor is the difference between Amazon and other technology giants such as Google and Facebook.
Other technology companies are looking for ways to spend money on the best software engineers, and Amazon, in addition to technology, relies on a large number of ordinary workers.
< /p >
< p > Apple Corp has outsourced its main business on a large scale, because the closer it is to customers, the faster delivery of orders to more customers.
However, Amazon's main business is online retailing, and outsourcing is unlikely.
As a result, all the discontent and conflict of Amazon are displayed in front of US consumers, because this is Amazon's base camp.
< /p >
On the issue of trade unions, Amazon spokesman said, "Amazon's corporate culture and business models are based on rapid innovation, flexibility and good communication between managers and employees." P
Therefore, the existence of trade unions is not necessary.
Once the trade union is established, Amazon must give explicit provisions in terms of workers' vacations and promotions, so that the elasticity will be lost.
< /p >
< p > in the past Christmas shopping season, Amazon's two day commitment failed to materialize, although Amazon postponed the arrival of goods to the carrier, but Amazon still had a break.
Companies such as Amazon have made very small profits from single orders, but have made promises to their customers beyond their capabilities. Behind the promise is the hard work of the bottom workers like robots.
