The NLRB issued a complaint against Verizon Wireless yesterday
https://onlabor.org/november-8/The NLRB issued a complaint against Verizon Wireless yesterday, alleging the April 2022 termination of Jesse Mason was motivated by anti-union animus. Mason, who was reportedly inspired by labor victories at Starbucks, was the main person attempting to organize his Verizon store in Seattle. Mason, who had no disciplinary record while working at Verizon, was suddenly subjected to increased scrutiny after other stores in the Seattle area announced their intent to organize. Then, on the first work day after Mason was photographed celebrating the union victory of the other Verizon stores, he was terminated by the company. The Board is seeking to reinstate Mason with backpay. The hearing is scheduled for February 14, 2023.
