Amazon claims US National Labor Relations Board complaint is unconstitutional
Amazon is calling for the dismissal of a complaint issued by the National Labor Relations Board after two warehouse workers in the US state of Georgia claimed they faced retaliation, surveillance, and questioning after they led employee complaints about policy changes. Amazon, in common with other companies such as Trader Joe's and Starbucks, is claiming that following a recent US Supreme Court decision ending the "Chevron deference" principle, the NLRB's complaint violates the US constitution. The Chevron doctrine upheld the authority of experts in federal agencies to interpret the laws they administer; striking it down transfers authority to the courts.
