As Amazon tries to get employees back to the office, some staffers are being told to relocate to hubs in different states if they want to keep their jobs

How is this even legal. Isn't this considered workplace bullying?
It's constructive dismissal.
Sorry guys, we are moving your position to Antarctica. Can't come? Oh well I guess you get no severance.
Please explain what ypu think “workplace bullying” is here. While I think it’s stupid, in at will states, Amazon’s terms of employment can be whatever Amazon wants as long as they comply with federal and state laws. It’s not illegal to tell you your job is moving. It’s just a shitty thing to do to your employees. There’s not bullying here. It’s just terms of employment.
I'll agree that bullying is probably the wrong term.
Where I'm from you can't just force people to change work location. If they want to move the company they can, but it has to be within x km of the preclvious building or get agreement from a certain percentage of employees. Otherwise it counts as a collective firing of the workforce.
Politicians should act on this stuff tbh.
