The NLRB requires that Amazon distribute a notice of election informing employees that they would become ineligible under those circumstances. Ballots from those former employees, if submitted, can be contested by Amazon, the union or the labor board when votes are counted, according to the notice of election. Reuters couldn't determine the total number of Amazon employees who received ballots in that ineligible category. He added: "We've heard from over 1,000 Amazon workers who want to know if their warehouse could be next" to attempt unionization. Morgan Lewis declined to comment about its work for Amazon and its public advice for employers facing potential union campaigns.
