The thing that was found to be unsupported by the evidence.
When the government charges someone with a crime and someone asks “whats the other side”, do you say the same thing?
This would go to trial if not settled. Only then would the labor boards decision be based on an actual weighing of all evidence.
Arbitration and mediation is a far more common way to deal with disagreements in civil society, and that's what the board has done here.
Hardly a finding of guilt.
If a violation is believed to exist, the region will take the case before an Administrative Law Judge who will conduct a hearing. The decision of the Administrative Law Judge may be reviewed by the five member Board. Board decisions are reviewable by United States Courts of Appeals. The Board's decisions are not self-executing: it must seek court enforcement in order to force a recalcitrant party to comply with its orders.

I currently work with someone in a professional job who does an amazing job of dodging work.
“Did you get that document signed off last week?” - “Oh, I had to take my cat to the vet as it wasn’t drinking water” - “ok, but this week?” - “definitely”.
Rinse and repeated for a couple months. Every week is a new excuse.
If you asked her she’s say “I’m working extra hard hard” and “management should understand”. But no, she’s just great at dodging work and coming up with excuses. She can play the system well.
I’m not saying this person wasn’t illegally fired and Amazon is wrong, but it would be odd to not hear Amazon’s side.
