On April 13, 2026, the federal government is negotiating a settlement regarding Amazon.com Inc.'s AMZN -0.62% treatment of delivery drivers, potentially avoiding a significant ruling on its employment status. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has been pursuing Amazon since 2024 for allegedly violating drivers' rights linked to a former contractor in California. The NLRB claimed Amazon acted as a "joint employer," which would require it to engage in union negotiations. While Amazon has denied wrongdoing, a proposed settlement would offer two weeks' pay to up to 84 affected workers without admitting liability. This resolution could significantly impact ongoing legal proceedings.
