Wal-Mart warehouse workers Wednesday filed unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board against four employers – Schneider Logistics, Roadlink Workforce Solutions, Select Remedy and Skyward Employment Service. The workers allege that the employers used illegal threats, intimidation and discipline against workers organizing for improved working conditions. These employers hire workers to move Wal-Mart merchandise in warehouses in Elmwood, Illinois. At a Wal-Mart controlled warehouse in Mira Loma California dozens of workers walked off their jobs Wednesday to call for an end to retaliation against workers fighting for fair treatment and safe conditions.
