The NLRB reported that eBay has violated the rights of unionized workers at TCGPlayer, a trading card marketplace owned by the company. The charges were filed back in March of this year, and eBay allegedly refused to recognize TCGPlayer’s worker union, delayed participating in bargaining practices, and refused to provide necessary information to the union. As a result, the NLRB found that eBay and TCGPlayer broke the law and must face legal consequences for their union-busting practices. The union was denied representation during disciplinary investigations, and eBay was found to be changing working conditions and benefits without engaging in bargaining with the group. The NLRB also noted that eBay enforced rules to punish workers’ elections to unionize. While the NLRB laid out evidence of eBay’s illegal practices, it did not issue an official decision on the matter and is still waiting for the company’s response. Dennis Trainor, Communications Workers of America District 1 Vice-President, expressed hope that eBay will obey labor law and engage in good faith bargaining practices to secure a strong union contract for the workers. eBay could not be reached for comment.
