(Reuters) – Amazon.com Inc workers at the company’s “LDJ5” warehouse in Staten Island, New York will vote in person starting on April 25 on whether to unionize, the U.S. National Labor Relations Board said Friday in an election notice.

Workers received the go-ahead for the vote earlier this month, making this the third union election Amazon is facing this year on top of contests in Bessemer, Alabama and at the retailer’s “JFK8” facility in Staten Island. [L1N2V605Z]
