US EditionAmazon's Bid to Overturn B.C. Labour Ruling on Workers' Unionization Rejected
DELTA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, AUG 6 – The British Columbia Labour Relations Board found Amazon deliberately inflated employee numbers to block union certification of its Delta facility workers, upholding the original ruling.
- In Vancouver, British Columbia's Labour Relations Board rejected Amazon's appeal on Aug. 6, 2025, citing `abuse` of the process during the Delta facility union drive.
- Amazon appealed the July 10, 2025 decision, arguing the B.C. Labour Relations Board erred in applying labour laws and awarding remedial certification, but the appeal was rejected last month.
- The BCLRB panel noted that Amazon `knowingly and improperly` padded the employee list, calling it 'sufficiently egregious' and an attack on workers’ rights during the membership drive.
- Following the ruling, Unifor Western Regional Director Gavin McGarrigle said, "Amazon now has no other choice but to abide by the law and begin good faith negotiations with workers at YVR2 to improve working conditions."
- Unifor continues to push for stronger labour laws across Canada, representing 320,000 workers, following the B.C. labour ruling rejection of Amazon's appeal.
