Use this discussion to introduce yourself. Consider adding to your introduction using the following questions:

• What sort of experience have you had with HR? 
• What stereotypes do you hold, or what information have you heard, about unions and unionizing? 
• What sort of experience have you had in conflict resolution (not necessarily HR)?

Then, in the remainder of your main post, consider that one of the stated objectives of the National Labor Relations Act is to provide a framework where workers can, if they so choose, organize to collectively bargain with their employer over wages, hours, terms, and conditions of employment. In particular, Amazon, as one of the largest employers in the United States, has been criticized for its response to union organizing among its employees. After reviewing the article How Amazon Keeps a Close Eye on Employee Activism to Head Off Unions and doing some light research, discuss the following:

• Explain any ethical issues raised by Amazon's approach.
• Discuss whether Amazon (or any employer for that matter) has any ethical obligation to its employees and/or society when confronted with a union-organizing effort. Why or why not?

In your responses to classmates, build on others' responses by addressing any ethical issues not already discussed.
