Amazon workers in Bessemer, Alabama, have voted in a historic poll to decide whether they want to be represented by the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union.
The results are not expected until next week – but if they say yes, it will become Amazon’s first US union.
Amazon argues its wages and benefits are industry-beating and has gone into battle to persuade workers to vote no.
Most agree the outcome could have major implications for US labour laws.
