This is not a NLRB notice / consent decree, this is a court order injunctions so the better question would be "Do you have examples of executives being jailed of violations of court orders" which is yes of course there are examples of that

    I'm not sure they violated a court order...

    Being a corporation and doing illegal stuff that directly harms the lives of lots of regular citizens is OK. At worst, there'll be some trial and you might have to pay a big fine. Pissing off a judge, however, is something entirely different.

  > ...The injunction also directs Amazon to post, distribute, and read the Court’s order to employees at the Employer’s Staten Island facility (“JFK8”). But sure, to the wording of the order, they just have to post / distribute / read the order, and: > ...cease and desist from discharging employees, and from engaging in any like or related conduct, in retaliation for employees engaging in protected activities... So what's to prevent Amazon from saying, "we haven't broken the law so far and will continue to not do so," while maintaining business as usual in terms of how they respond to unionization attempts? If anything, what concrete changes are the court requiring here?

    The first quote implies there's more things the injunction requires. Your second quote, the content of the the cease and desist clause, is covered by the injunction. More of the quoted sentence: > ... issued a Section 10(j) injunction against Amazon.com Services LLC directing Amazon to cease and desist from discharging employees, and from engaging in any like or related conduct, in retaliation for employees engaging in protected activities
