Amazon video purports to show anti-union training tactics for Whole Foods stores


Amazon has reportedly sent a 45-minute-long video to its Whole Foods team leaders detailing ways to identify and discourage union-organizing efforts at the grocery store chain. (Dreamstime)

As Amazon on Sept 27 opened up a new physical store in New York called Amazon 4-star, which stocks only products rated with four stars or higher on the online retailer's site, the company was also facing a report highlighting some of its anti-union efforts at its Whole Foods stores. 

The website Gizmodo posted screenshots of a video it said it obtained, and which Amazon sent to Whole Foods team leaders last week, as part of a company attempt to tamp down union-organising efforts at the grocery store chain. The 45-minute-long animated video purports to show Whole Foods team leaders ways to recognise and deal with pro-union talk among the grocery stores' employees.
